Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the contract titled "36352 - KEYHAM LODGE SCHOOL" was managed by Leicester City Council, based in Leicester, England. This contract falls under the services category, specifically focused on taxi services with an additional classification for the hire of passenger transport vehicles with a driver. The process reached the award stage on the 19th of September, 2025. The contract started on the 26th of August, 2025, and is set to end on the 31st of July, 2028. The procurement method employed was an open procedure following a mini-competition under the Council's Dynamic Purchasing System. The main delivery location is the East Midlands, United Kingdom, with a tender value of £16848.00.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for growth, especially for large businesses in the passenger transport industry. The contract, having been awarded under a dynamic purchasing system, suggests that firms with the capability to offer flexible, on-demand transportation services are particularly well-suited. Despite the fact that SMEs and VCSEs were not explicitly targeted for this project, the scale of operations required implies a great fit for larger transportation companies capable of complying with the specified requirements. The city's emphasis on reliable transport services could foster long-term partnerships and establish a foothold in public service tenders for suitable providers.
