Summary of the contracting process

Leicester City Council has completed the procurement process for the project titled "35618 - LEICESTER COLLEGE", falling under the industry category of the hire of passenger transport vehicles with a driver. This tender covers multiple regions across the United Kingdom including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East, and South West. The procurement method used was an open procedure, and the procurement stage is now at the award phase. The contract period starts on 22 August 2024 and ends on 31 July 2025, with key activities commencing from 11 September 2024 through to 31 August 2027. The tender wrapped up on 14 August 2024, and both the value of the tender and the awarded contract are stated in GBP.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in passenger transport services with a driver. It is particularly suited to large-scale businesses, as neither SMEs nor VCSEs were targeted for participation. The extensive geographic scope across England and regional inclusivity offer ample potential for expanding market reach and increasing business visibility. Companies such as AZOOM, which has been awarded the contract, stand to benefit from securing a steady stream of service requirements over the multi-year contract period. With a total contract value encompassing thousands of pounds, participating businesses can anticipate considerable revenue growth through engagement in this high-demand service provision.
