Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process for the tender titled "36407 - HOME TO BRAUNSTONE C. SCHOOL" has been completed, with Leicester City Council as the buying organisation. This contract concerns taxi services, classified under the CPV code 60120000, and involves the hire of passenger transport vehicles with a driver. The scope of delivery spans multiple regions across the UK, including the North East, North West, and more. The open procurement procedure was used, with a tender period ending on 3rd September 2025 and a contract period commencing on 10th September 2025, lasting until 10th July 2026. The procurement falls under the works category and notably supports VCSE (Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise) suitability.

This tender provides an opportunity for businesses, particularly those specialising in transport services, to engage in public sector contracts and expand their reach across various UK regions. Companies capable of providing reliable and efficient taxi services with qualified drivers stand to benefit from such opportunities. While large-scale businesses like Hansom Taxi, which secured the contract, are well-suited to such tenders, there is significant potential for collaborations with or subcontracting to smaller enterprises and social enterprises that focus on community transport solutions, thus promoting business growth and diversification in service offerings.
