Summary of the contracting process

Leicestershire County Council procured transport services under requirement SEN19742. The published scope identifies a single transport-service item for delivery in England, but does not describe the passengers, routes, vehicle type or journey arrangements. The buying organisation is Leicestershire County Council, based in Leicester. This is a service requirement rather than a purchase of vehicles or transport infrastructure; the available description does not allow the precise transport operation to be identified. Businesses considering comparable work should therefore note that the procurement concerns transport services for the council, while the detailed operational scope would need to be established from the underlying contract information.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Paramjit Singh trading as PS Taxis following an open procedure. The award was made on 13 August 2026. The awarded value is £34,000. The award record gives a contract period from 24 August 2026 to 31 July 2027; the tender-level period ends one day earlier, on 30 July 2027. The tender submission deadline was 13 August 2026. The process is recorded as one transport-service item, with no separate lots identified. The award record names one supplier. No evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements are described in the available procurement details.

This award shows that Leicestershire County Council buys transport services through an open procedure and selected a taxi supplier for a single, defined requirement. A credible competitor for comparable council work would need to provide a transport service suited to the operational need and demonstrate the capacity to deliver reliably for the required contract period. The precise passenger, route, vehicle and service requirements are not described here, so the award alone does not establish specialist qualifications or accreditations that future suppliers would need. The council selected Paramjit Singh trading as PS Taxis; businesses competing for similar work should be prepared to evidence relevant transport capability and dependable delivery, while checking the detailed specification when a comparable requirement is published.
