Summary of the contracting process

Leicester City Council procured passenger transport services for the journey identified as Quorn Hall. The requirement is primarily for taxi services, with associated hire of passenger transport vehicles with drivers. Delivery is in the East Midlands, serving the Council’s transport need for this journey. The contract sits within the Council’s wider passenger transport services arrangement and concerns operational transport provision rather than vehicle supply alone. Businesses relevant to this requirement are taxi operators and passenger transport providers able to provide vehicles with drivers for Council journeys. The buying organisation is Leicester City Council, based in Leicester.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a mini-competition under the Council’s Dynamic Purchasing System for passenger transport services. The award was made on 27 July 2026 to SKYLINE TAXIS for £36,621 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 26 August 2026 to 31 July 2028. The tender’s submission deadline was 27 July 2026 at 9:00am. The procurement was for services and the award is active. The published evaluation basis is the mini-competition process within the Council’s passenger transport DPS. This outcome records a single supplier and a single awarded requirement for the Quorn Hall journey.

This award demonstrates continuing Council demand for contracted taxi and driver-provided passenger transport for defined journeys in the East Midlands. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need to operate passenger vehicles with drivers and deliver reliable scheduled transport for Leicester City Council. The relevant market is commercial taxi and passenger transport provision rather than general vehicle hire without drivers. The selected supplier is recorded as a large organisation, indicating that the requirement can suit operators with the operational capacity to manage Council transport work. Firms developing this capability should understand mini-competition routes within a passenger transport dynamic purchasing system and be prepared to service journey-specific requirements.
