Summary of the contracting process

Leicester City Council has completed the procurement process for the project titled "35693 - HOME TO INGLEHURST SCHOOL," classified under the CPV category "Hire of passenger transport vehicles with driver." The procurement utilised an open procedure and covered service locations across various regions in the United Kingdom, including North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East, and South West England. Key dates include the end of the tender period on 30 August 2024, the start of the contract on 9 September 2024, and the contract conclusion on 11 July 2025.

This procurement represents an excellent opportunity for businesses in the vehicle hire industry, particularly those able to provide passenger transport services with drivers. While Leicester City Council has awarded the contract to SKYLINE TAXIS, large-scale companies are well-placed to compete in similar tenders due to the scope and demand for extensive transport services. Although the suitability criteria did not specifically favour SMEs or VCSEs, organisations with adequate resources and operational capacity to manage extensive transport logistics across multiple regions in the United Kingdom will find prospects for growth. The awarded contract value is significant, amounting to £18,837, indicating the potential for substantial business opportunities within public service logistics.
