Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, led by Leicester City Council, focused on securing taxi services under the title "36510- HOME TO VARIOUS" within the industry category of passenger transport. This initiative primarily covers the region of England in the United Kingdom. It has reached the award stage, with the contract being awarded to SKYLINE TAXI on 18th September 2025. The procurement was conducted through an open procedure, allowing broad participation. The contract period is set from 22nd September 2025 to 31st July 2026, with a total award value of £21,294.

This tender opens significant opportunities for businesses involved in passenger transport services, particularly those capable of providing reliable taxi services. Although the specific suitability criteria favoured organisations recognised as voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSE), other businesses could still benefit from related contracts. Large-scale businesses, like SKYLINE TAXI, have successfully competed and secured the contract, indicating that capacity to manage a larger contract scope is advantageous. This could encourage small and medium-sized enterprises to scale operations to align with similar tender requirements in future opportunities.
