Summary of the contracting process

Leicester City Council has completed the procurement process for the tender titled "35462 - Ellesmere College, KFC Site" under the industry category of "Hire of passenger transport vehicles with driver" (CPV code 60170000). This open procedure tender was aimed at securing taxi transport services across various regions in 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. Key dates included the tender period ending on 1st August 2024, and the contract period spanning from 28th August 2024 to 31st July 2028. The total value of the contract awarded is £31,824 GBP, with individual awards of £44.5 GBP and £20.4 GBP for different delivery addresses.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in passenger transport services, especially those capable of operating on a large scale across multiple regions in the UK. Given that the procurement method was open, it provided a level playing field for all qualifying businesses, though it was not specifically tailored for SMEs or VCSEs. Companies like AZOOM, which was awarded the contract, find an avenue not only for revenue growth but also for reinforcing their market presence by partnering with a reputable local authority like Leicester City Council. Businesses with a solid operational base and capacity to meet diverse regional demands would be well-positioned to benefit from such tenders.
