Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Leicester City Council bought passenger transport services for All Saints Church of England Primary School, covering the journey identified in the procurement title. The requirement is for taxi services and the hire of passenger transport vehicles with a driver. The buying organisation is Leicester City Council, based in Leicester, and delivery is in England. This is a service contract aimed at transporting school passengers rather than supplying vehicles without drivers. Businesses operating taxi services, private hire vehicles or other driven passenger transport suitable for school journeys are the relevant supplier audience. The requirement sits within the Council’s wider Passenger Transport Services purchasing arrangements.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 21 July 2026 following a mini-competition under Leicester City Council’s Dynamic Purchasing System for Passenger Transport Services. The contract was awarded to AZOOM TAXIS for £28,431. The contract period runs from 26 August 2026 to 31 July 2028. The tender submission deadline was 21 July 2026 at 9:00am. Leicester City Council recorded the service as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The award covered one school transport requirement. The procurement used the Council’s Dynamic Purchasing System route; the available information does not state a separate scoring or award-criteria basis.

This award indicates demand from Leicester City Council for dedicated, driven passenger transport serving a primary school. Suppliers well placed for a future requirement of this kind would have an operating taxi or private hire fleet, appropriately licensed drivers and vehicles suitable for carrying school passengers safely and reliably. The ability to plan recurring journeys, maintain dependable driver and vehicle availability, and manage day-to-day communication with the Council would be important. Small and medium-sized businesses and voluntary, community or social enterprises were considered suitable for the opportunity. Experience of school transport, safeguarding-conscious operations, punctual collection and drop-off, and compliance with passenger transport requirements would help a competitor demonstrate credibility.
