Summary of the contracting process

Leicester City Council has completed a procurement process for taxi services entitled "Homefield College" under the industry category of Taxi Services (CPV: 60120000), with additional classifications involving the hire of passenger transport vehicles with a driver. The procurement followed an open procedure and reached the award stage on 26th August 2025. The contract was awarded to NMI TAXI and entails services taking place within England, United Kingdom, from 2nd September 2025 until 31st July 2026. The overall contract value is £40 GBP, though the tender estimated a total value of £112 GBP, covering a broader contract period until 31st July 2028. This opportunity was classified primarily under works and was inclusive for voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). The procurement stage was formally completed, with details accessible via the specified award notice.

This contract provides substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in passenger transportation, particularly those capable of providing a fleet of vehicles with drivers. While Leicester City Council's procurement suited larger suppliers, the inclusion criteria also suggest potential engagement for VCSEs. Firms with expertise in logistics, fleet management, or those seeking to expand their service offerings in the public sector may find participation in such tenders beneficial for business growth and market presence. As public transportation requirements evolve, innovative service providers could leverage future opportunities in this sector to develop more sustainable and responsive transportation solutions.
