Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Leicester City Council procured passenger transport services for the Beaumont Lodge Primary journey. The requirement is described as a journey-specific transport contract, covering taxi services and passenger vehicles supplied with a driver. Delivery is in the East Midlands, United Kingdom. The procurement is therefore relevant to operators able to provide the specified school journey; the available description does not set out route details or passenger numbers.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to SKYLINE TAXIS. The award date was 24 September 2026 and the awarded value is £9,672. The award period runs from 28 September to 18 December 2026; the tender’s stated contract period runs from 28 October to 18 December 2026. The contract was competed through a mini-competition under the Council’s passenger transport Dynamic Purchasing System, using an open procedure. The original tender deadline was 24 September 2026. The published information does not state the evaluation criteria or any eligibility requirements.

This award evidences Leicester City Council’s demand for journey-specific passenger transport for Beaumont Lodge Primary, procured through a mini-competition within its passenger transport Dynamic Purchasing System. A credible competitor would need to operate taxi or other passenger vehicles with drivers and be capable of delivering the required school journey. The requirement was awarded to a large supplier, and the Council marked it as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, indicating that smaller or community-based operators may not have been considered suitable for this particular procurement. Suppliers considering comparable future requirements from this buyer should assess their ability to provide reliable, appropriately scaled passenger transport through the Council’s DPS route.
