Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Leicester City Council procured passenger transport services for Miller House School, covering the journey identified in the requirement. The work is a taxi service, including the provision of passenger transport vehicles with drivers, rather than vehicle supply alone. Delivery is in England. The buyer is Leicester City Council, based in Leicester. This requirement sits within the Council’s wider Passenger Transport Services Dynamic Purchasing System and concerns a specific school transport journey. It is therefore relevant to taxi operators, private-hire firms and passenger transport providers able to provide driver-operated vehicles for education-related journeys. The procurement is categorised as services, with the main classification for taxi services and an additional classification for hiring passenger transport vehicles with drivers.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a mini-competition under Leicester City Council’s Dynamic Purchasing System for Passenger Transport Services. The contract was awarded to ADAMS TRANSPORT on 9 September 2026 for £28,068. The contract period runs from 14 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. The tender’s estimated value was also £28,068. The award is active and the tender is complete. The published process records the route to market as a mini-competition under the Council’s DPS; no separate quality, price weighting or other evaluation basis is stated. The requirement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. This is a single awarded requirement rather than a multi-lot procurement.

This award shows Leicester City Council’s demand for dedicated, driver-operated passenger transport for a school journey, procured through a Passenger Transport Services Dynamic Purchasing System and then competed among eligible providers. A credible future supplier would need to operate taxi or private-hire passenger transport, provide suitable vehicles with drivers, and organise reliable delivery for a school-related route in England. The successful supplier was recorded as a large transport business, while the requirement was also marked as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises, indicating that smaller specialist operators may be relevant where they can meet the Council’s operational requirements. Firms considering this buyer should understand DPS participation, mini-competition responses and the practical demands of recurring education transport work.
