In plain English
Leeds Beckett University wants to hire coaches (large passenger buses) with drivers for staff and student trips throughout the year. The coaches need to be available on weekdays and weekends, during daytime, evenings, and occasionally overnight.

Likely requirements
Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.
You will almost certainly be disqualified if you do not hold a current PSV operator's license and do not have professional drivers with PCV (Passenger Carrying Vehicle) licenses, as this is a legal requirement for coach hire in the UK.
How to bid
This is a framework: the buyer picks a set of suppliers now and awards work to them over several years. If you are not on it when it is awarded, you usually cannot win work from it until it is re-tendered, so this is the window to bid.
