Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the contract titled "35232 - MILLGATE" was undertaken by Leicester City Council, focusing on the hire of passenger transport vehicles with a driver. This contract falls under the services category and spans various regions within the United Kingdom, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East, and South West. The procurement method employed was an open procedure. The tendering phase concluded on 26th July 2024, with the contract set to run from 27th August 2024 to 31st July 2028. The entire process, from initiation to the award stages, is complete, with the award notice published on 1st May 2025.

This procurement presents significant business growth opportunities for companies in the passenger transport services industry that have the capability to provide vehicles with drivers across multiple regions. Due to the open procedure of the procurement process, a wide array of providers could have potentially competed, though a large enterprise, Hansom, was ultimately awarded the contract. While the contract suitability does not specifically favour SMEs or VCSEs, businesses with a substantial operational scale and expertise in multi-regional transport logistics may find similar future opportunities highly advantageous.
