Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Leicester City Council procured passenger transport for the journey identified as Brooke House School, using taxi services and passenger transport vehicles with drivers. The work is delivered in the East Midlands. The requirement sits within the Council’s passenger transport services market and concerns the routine provision of journeys rather than vehicle supply alone. It is relevant to taxi operators, private-hire firms and passenger transport businesses able to provide drivers and suitable vehicles for school-related transport. The named buying organisation is Leicester City Council, based in Leicester, England. The procurement is categorised as services, with taxi services as the primary classification and hired passenger transport vehicles with drivers as an additional classification.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a mini-competition under Leicester City Council’s Dynamic Purchasing System for passenger transport services. The recorded procedure is an open procedure. The award was made to ELITE TAXIS on 17 September 2026 for £23,166 including the stated currency, GBP. The contract period runs from 21 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. The tender submission deadline was 17 September 2026 at 09:00. The contract covers the Brooke House School journey and was awarded as a single requirement. The opportunity was recorded as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises.

For businesses that did not win this requirement, the award demonstrates demand from Leicester City Council for planned school passenger transport delivered through taxi and private-hire capability. A credible competitor would need suitable passenger vehicles, appropriately qualified and reliable drivers, and the operational capacity to provide consistent journeys for the required service period. Experience of school or other safeguarding-sensitive transport would strengthen a supplier’s position, alongside robust scheduling, vehicle availability and contingency arrangements. The successful supplier is recorded as a large organisation, indicating that the Council accepted a provider with capacity to manage the requirement at an established operational scale. Suppliers should understand the Council’s passenger transport purchasing route and be able to compete through its dynamic purchasing system.
