Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

This public procurement process, managed by Leicestershire County Council, focuses on providing transport services specifically for Special Educational Needs (SEN) students attending All Saints C of E Primary School. The industry category is transport services, excluding waste transport, and the contract is set in England, United Kingdom. The procurement stage has reached the award phase, with the contract being awarded to NMI TAXI LTD as of 11th June 2026. The procurement process commenced with the tender period ending on 10th June 2026. This contract, valued at £10,920, is slated to commence on 26th August 2026 and conclude on 31st July 2027.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the transportation sector, particularly those specialising in services for educational and local authority transport. Although the contract was awarded to a large-scale supplier, the procurement process could serve as a model for similarly structured contracts in the future, offering potential for growth to businesses capable of providing reliable and tailored transport solutions for SEN students. As the procurement method was specified as "Other," it indicates a willingness to explore various procurement approaches, potentially opening doors to innovative transport service providers. However, this specific tender was not suited to SMEs or VCSEs, possibly due to the scale and specific requirements of the services needed.
