Provision of Taxi Services
Authority: Nottingham Trent University (Education)
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionThe University is looking to award a contractual agreement for the Provision of Taxi Services to a proactive and progressive operator who is able to support the transportation of University staff, students, visiting guest and other dignitaries on an ad-hoc basis. The highest quality of transport and service is expected, in order to reflect the University’s reputation and prestige. The expected journeys may be within the Nottingham and/or Nottinghamshire boundary travelling between the University’s five different campuses or work premises, to visiting any neighbouring locations, railway stations and including UK international airports. NTU having five campuses geographical located across Nottingham and Nottinghamshire, the University wishes to rationalise the number of appointed suppliers to a single supplier who has the operational capabilities of providing the required taxi services across the University’s five campuses with the provision of airport transfer services.
