Summary of the contracting process

Leicestershire County Council procured mainstream taxi transport for Fleckney Church of England Primary School. The requirement is a passenger transport service for school journeys, rather than the supply of vehicles or transport equipment. Delivery is in England, with the school route identified through the procurement title. The buying organisation is Leicestershire County Council, based at County Hall in Glenfield, Leicester. The service falls within the transport services category and concerns a specific school transport requirement. It is relevant to taxi operators and passenger transport businesses able to provide reliable school travel services for a primary school route under a council contract.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following an open procedure. The tender deadline was 7 August 2026 at 9:00am. The contract was awarded on 10 August 2026 to Shafi-Ullah Adam trading as ADAMS TRANSPORT, for £18,700. The contract period runs from 24 August 2026 to 6 July 2027. The tender carried an estimated value of £97.40, while the recorded awarded value is £18,700. The evaluation basis and any lot structure are not included in the available outcome data. The award is active and relates to a single mainstream taxi service for Fleckney Church of England Primary School.

This award provides a clear example of Leicestershire County Council buying dedicated taxi transport for a primary school route. Businesses considering similar council work would need to operate a passenger transport service capable of delivering dependable school journeys in England, with the practical capacity to cover a defined route throughout the school contract period. Taxi operators, small transport companies and voluntary, community or social enterprises are indicated as suitable organisation types for the requirement. Experience in school transport, dependable vehicle and driver availability, and the ability to meet council service expectations would help a future competitor demonstrate credibility for this specific type of work.
