Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Leicester City Council procured a short-term passenger transport service for the journey identified as “37134 - CONTACT”. The requirement covers taxi services and the hire of passenger transport vehicles with a driver. The service is classified under CPV 60120000 for taxi services, with CPV 60170000 covering passenger vehicle hire with driver. Delivery is in the East Midlands, United Kingdom. This is a council transport requirement rather than a vehicle supply contract: the relevant business activity is providing a passenger journey using a taxi or other suitable driven vehicle. The buying organisation is Leicester City Council, based in Leicester. The procurement formed part of the Council’s passenger transport purchasing arrangements.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 13 August 2026 following a mini-competition under the Council’s Dynamic Purchasing System for Passenger Transport Services. The stated procurement method was an open procedure. The contract was awarded to Shafi-Ullah Adam for £56, and the contract period runs from 17 August 2026 to 18 August 2026. The tender submission deadline was 9:00am on 12 August 2026. The award is active. The requirement was treated as a services contract, and the recorded supplier suitability settings did not identify it as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. The award relates to one specified passenger journey.

This award indicates demand from Leicester City Council for individually specified passenger journeys delivered by taxi or passenger vehicle with a driver. Businesses well placed for comparable requirements would have access to suitable licensed vehicles, appropriately qualified drivers and the operational ability to provide reliable, time-specific transport in the East Midlands. They would also need to understand how to participate in the Council’s Dynamic Purchasing System and respond to mini-competitions for passenger transport services. The selected supplier profile suggests the Council is willing to use an established, larger-scale provider for this type of requirement. Taxi operators and passenger transport businesses seeking council work should therefore be able to demonstrate dependable journey fulfilment, suitable vehicle capacity and familiarity with public-sector purchasing procedures.
