Summary of the contracting process

Leicester City Council has completed the procurement process for the "36297 day centre" project, focusing on taxi services within the industry category of passenger transport. This project follows a mini competition under the Council's Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) PAN3059 for Passenger Transport Services. The process reached the award stage on 9th September 2025, with the contract running from 12th September 2025 to 31st July 2028. The procurement was conducted using an unspecified method categorised as "Other - ". The services are required across multiple regions in the United Kingdom, including the East and West Midlands, London, and others, providing ample opportunities for businesses within these areas.

This contract provides significant growth opportunities for businesses operating taxi services, particularly those that can offer hire of passenger transport vehicles with drivers. It is especially suitable for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) and Voluntary, Community, and Social Enterprises (VCSEs).
