Launched and run by a member of the team there with help from a temporary member of staff drafted in to support due to the success to date they have succeeded in not only generating revenue but also in gathering reputational momentum that is invaluable to Network Rail and the railway. As a result Network Rail Property/Retail would like to launch a wider scale programme of station tours across more of the managed station portfolio due to this unprecedented success. The proposal to expand the tours has the full backing of the executive board. It is intended that the tours on the stations outwith Glasgow Central will be run by an external outsourced company that is a specialist in project start-up, hospitality, experiential activities and safety. Additional information: Potential suppliers should initially complete and return the pre-qualification questionnaire. Those shortlisted to tender will be notified on or after 16 December 2015. ## CPV classification Travel agency, tour operator and tourist assistance services Source Contracts Finder (UK) [View official notice](https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/0d41718d-adc9-11e6-9901-0019b9f3037b) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
