Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process "35531 - WESTGATE" is led by Leicester City Council, targeting the hire of passenger transport vehicles with drivers. The tender operates across multiple 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. The procurement stage is currently in the award phase, with key dates including the tender end date on 6 August 2024 and the contract period running from 28 August 2024 to 31 July 2028. The procurement was conducted using an open procedure and offers a total value of £56,160 for one award and £29.9 for another, with the primary industry category being services.

This tender provides significant opportunities for growth for large transport service providers capable of offering passenger transport with drivers. The extensive coverage across various UK regions suggests a need for a substantial fleet and operational efficiency. Companies such as Victoria Cabs and NMI Taxi, who have been successfully awarded parts of this contract, are well-positioned to leverage their existing infrastructure to meet the extensive requirements set forth by Leicester City Council. While SMEs and VCSEs were deemed unsuitable for this specific procurement, it opens avenues for larger organisations to expand their service range and client base in the public sector.
