Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Mainstream Taxi S457 Wreake Valley Academy" has been completed by Leicestershire County Council, a key public sector body based in Leicester, United Kingdom. This process, classified under the transport services category (excluding waste transport), took place through an open procedure, with the tender period concluding on 15th August 2025. The resulting contract, valued at £13,680, is set to run from 28th August 2025 to 10th July 2026. The award stage of this procurement was confirmed as active on 18th August 2025. The services are intended to be delivered in the region of England.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the transport sector, notably those providing taxi services. The procurement method highlights opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) as well as voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Although Premier Taxis Leicester Ltd, a large-scale operator, was successful in this instance, the open nature of the process suggests similar contracts could be accessible to businesses of varying sizes looking to expand their engagement with public sector contracts in the transport services industry. Established networks within Leicester and the surrounding areas will serve as a competitive advantage for potential bidders in future opportunities.
