Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process conducted by Leicester City Council for "36247- THE OSIERS" involves the provision of transport services, specifically taxi services, with additional opportunities for hiring passenger transport vehicles with drivers. This contract, located in the East Midlands, United Kingdom, was completed after a mini-competition under the council's Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) PAN3059-Passenger Transport, using an open procedure. The procurement reached the award stage, with the active status being confirmed on 29th July 2025. The contract duration spans from 4th August 2025 to 31st July 2028, and the total award value amounts to £10,530.

This tender offers significant business growth opportunities for companies in the transport sector, especially those providing taxi and vehicle hire services. Since the procurement method was open, it welcomed a broad range of competitors, favouring well-established large-scale suppliers rather than SMEs or VCSEs. Businesses offering competitive and quality passenger transport services can leverage such contracts to expand their client base and enhance revenue streams by establishing long-term relationships with government buyers like Leicester City Council. HANSOM AIRPORT TAXIS, a large entity, successfully secured this contract, highlighting the competitive nature of the tendering process.
