Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Leicestershire County Council procured mainstream taxi transport services for Sheepy Magna C of E Primary School. The requirement is a school transport service, classified under transport services, for delivery in England. It concerns the routine transportation associated with the named primary school rather than a broader transport network or general passenger service. The council is the buying organisation and the selected supplier is Triple A Taxis of Atherstone Ltd, based in Atherstone. The requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprise organisations, indicating that the work can be delivered by suitably capable local or specialist operators as well as larger transport businesses.

The procurement has been completed following an open procedure. The tender closed on 7 August 2026 at 9:00am, and the contract was awarded to Triple A Taxis of Atherstone Ltd on 7 August 2026. The awarded value is £14,208 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 24 August 2026 to 7 July 2027. The tender record also gives an estimated procurement value of £74. The process was for services and did not set out separate lots. The award is active, with Leicestershire County Council as buyer and Triple A Taxis of Atherstone Ltd as the successful supplier.

This award is relevant to taxi firms and school transport operators able to provide dependable passenger transport for a primary school requirement in Leicestershire. A credible future competitor would need suitable licensed vehicles, appropriately qualified and vetted drivers, reliable scheduling and the capacity to maintain regular school journeys throughout the contract period. Experience of transporting children, managing school-day timings and communicating effectively with the council or school would strengthen a supplier’s position. The procurement also demonstrates demand from Leicestershire County Council for a focused, relatively small-scale transport service that can suit SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprise organisations. Local coverage around Sheepy Magna and Atherstone may be commercially useful for operators assessing similar council requirements.
