Summary of the contracting process

Leicester City Council recently concluded a public procurement process under the tender ID LEICSCITY02-DN734691-70334641, titled "35442 - QUORN HALL SCHOOL." This procurement falls under the industry category of "Hire of passenger transport vehicles with driver" (CPV code 60170000) and spans multiple regions within the United Kingdom including North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, and more. The tendering process, an open procedure, began with the tender period ending on 1st August 2024, 08:00. The contract is set to run from 1st September 2024 to 31st July 2028. Notable parties include the contracting authority and buyer, Leicester City Council, and the supplier, AZOOM Taxi. The award, valued at £56,316, was published on 3rd April 2025, marking the completion stage of the procurement process.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for business growth, especially for companies in the passenger transport sector with significant operational capabilities across various UK regions. Large-scale suppliers, in particular, would benefit from competing in such tenders given the extensive service requirements and geographical spread. The long contract duration also provides a stable revenue stream over four years, allowing businesses to plan and allocate resources effectively. Nevertheless, SMEs and VCSE organisations may find it challenging to compete due to the scale of operations required, as the suitability criteria did not favour these smaller entities.
