Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process conducted by Leicester City Council has been concluded under an open procedure for the provision of transport services. This tender, titled "36677 - Various", pertains specifically to taxi and passenger transport services within the East Midlands, UK. It followed a Mini Competition under the Council's Dynamic Purchasing System PAN3059. The award stage of this process occurred on 5th December 2025, with the contract active for a short period between 16th and 17th December 2025. Classified under CPV codes 60120000 and 60170000, the contract aimed at acquiring taxi services and hire of passenger transport vehicles with drivers, respectively, emphasising services as the main procurement category.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the transport sector, particularly those capable of delivering passenger transport services in the East Midlands region. While the mini competition process was open to various suppliers, only entities listed under the Council's Dynamic Purchasing System were eligible to tender. Although Leicester City Council no longer seeks tenders as the contract was awarded to AZOOM TAXI, the nature of the DPS system could still accommodate suitable large-scale transport suppliers for future opportunities. This process highlights opportunities for businesses, especially large transport service providers, to engage in similar contract opportunities and support community transport requirements.
