Summary of the contracting process

Leicester City Council has awarded two contracts for the hire of passenger transport vehicles with driver under the title "ID 35776- PINDAR NURSERY" in the services category. The procurement process followed an open procedure and is currently in the award stage. The first contract was awarded to AZOOM TAXIS, covering various regions across the United Kingdom including the North East, North West, and London, with a contract period from 30th September 2024 to 31st July 2028. The second contract was awarded to Victoria Cabs, focusing on delivery within England, for the same contract period. Key dates include the award dates on 24th September 2024 and deadlines for the tender period ending on 23rd September 2024.

This tender provides substantial opportunities for large passenger transport service providers to secure long-term contracts with Leicester City Council. The nature of the service—hiring passenger transport vehicles with drivers—makes it ideal for well-established transportation companies with a considerable fleet and operational capability across multiple regions in the UK. With a contract value of 67.6 GBP for each supplier, these contracts offer a stable revenue stream and potential for business growth over the four-year duration. Smaller enterprises and VCSEs may find it challenging to meet the size and scope requirements, as this tender primarily caters to larger organisations in the passenger transport sector.
