## About this tender

WFD is issuing this Invitation to Tender ("ITT") to a range of potential suppliers of services and would welcome a bid from your organisation.

Due to the nature of the work WFD carries out, more than 50% of our staff and consultants travel on a regular basis. Our travel needs are often short-notice or subject to last-minute changes due to the changing needs of travellers.

For the logistical arrangements of these business trips, WFD needs the services of a provider that can facilitate both an individual's travel arrangements, complex group trips, and VIP travel. The successful bidder will provide the following services: visas; international air travel; rail travel; ground transportation (e.g. transfers); event venue/meeting space finding and booking; and hotel bookings with no guaranteed minimum annual expenditure on travel and accommodation. This will need to be reflected in a flexible cost and billing structure.

In particular, WFD is looking for a provider that has an effective booking process that conforms with our Safe & Sustainable Travel Policy and Expenditure Authorisation requirements, to enable staff to book their own travel if they wish to. Additionally, we require dedicated agents on hand to help with any queries or to fulfil offline travel bookings for staff and sponsored third party travellers and specialist agents to support with group, VIP, and complex booking needs.

Please refer to the Invitation to Tender document for a full scope of work and details on how to bid.
