Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Leicestershire County Council procured passenger taxi transport services for the SEN18822 requirement associated with Dorothy Goodman Upper Barwell. The work falls within the transport services category and is delivered in England. The buying organisation is Leicestershire County Council, based at County Hall in Glenfield, Leicester. The requirement concerns a defined education-related transport service rather than the supply of vehicles or general transport infrastructure. Businesses relevant to this opportunity are therefore taxi operators and passenger transport providers able to provide the required journeys for the named service and location.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through an open procedure. Bids closed on 15 July 2026 at 23:59. The contract was awarded to NMI TAXI on 25 July 2026 for £25,480. The contract period runs from 24 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. The recorded tender value is also £25,480. The award is active and covers the full requirement as a single procurement item. The published outcome identifies NMI TAXI as the selected supplier. The procurement record marks the opportunity as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises.

For a future requirement of this type, a credible competitor would need to operate a passenger taxi service capable of supporting a named special educational needs transport requirement connected with Dorothy Goodman Upper Barwell. Relevant capability would include dependable day-to-day vehicle and driver availability, sufficient operational capacity for the required journeys, and the ability to manage a defined council service throughout its contract term. The successful supplier was an established taxi business recorded as a large organisation, indicating that the buyer selected a provider with capacity beyond a small local operation. Businesses with comparable taxi or passenger transport experience should monitor this council’s education transport demand and be prepared to demonstrate a robust service operation.
