Summary of the contracting process

The recent procurement process initiated by Leicester City Council involved the provision of passenger transport services, specifically taxi services as outlined under CPV classifications 60120000 and 60170000. The process was conducted via an open procedure, culminating in an award made on 27th November 2025. The contract, valued at £59.8 GBP, covers services within the East Midlands region of the United Kingdom and is set to commence on 18th December 2025, with completion scheduled for 19th December 2025. Interested parties noted that the tendering phase remains closed as of the award date.

This contract presents a distinct opportunity for transport service providers, particularly those with a capacity for passenger vehicle hire with drivers, to engage with municipal procurement frameworks. While Leicester City Council utilised a Dynamic Purchasing System, larger businesses not classified as SMEs may find compatibility with such structures advantageous. Firms aiming to expand their engagement with local governmental buyers could find participation in similar processes beneficial, especially those that align with public sector service standards and operational depths.
