Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by Leicester City Council involves the 'PAN2061 - Vulnerable Passenger Transport Services Framework' contract, classified under taxi services within the services industry. The open procedure tender is currently at the award stage, with the contract signed as of 31 December 2020. The framework agreement has been established for two years, with the option for a further extension of up to two additional years, providing transport for vulnerable passengers, including children and adults requiring extra support.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses in the transportation sector, particularly those specialising in taxi services equipped to handle vulnerable passengers. Companies with capabilities for flexible scheduling, specialised training for drivers and assistants, and vehicles that accommodate specific accessibility needs will be well-positioned to compete. Given that 37 bids were received, including a significant number from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), the competitive landscape suggests a vigorous market for service providers able to meet the outlined criteria.

Lot Information

Lot 1

Leicester City Council (the Council) invites Tenders for the provision of vulnerable passenger transport services. The Council procures journeys for children, young people and adult service users, as well as for Council staff using taxi providers. These journeys are commonly planned e.g. trips to and from school or unplanned e.g. one-off journeys to an appointment. These taxi journeys supplement those provided by the Council's fleet of in-house buses. A given service user may be transported exclusively by taxi or bus or a combination of the two. Service users using taxis require additional support or supervision which is provided through a passenger assistant, arranged by the taxi provider. Some service users using taxis have additional needs of the vehicle e.g. the size of vehicle or ramps and wheelchair accessibility. Some service users need the driver and/or passenger assistant to have specialist training e.g. how to help someone with a medical condition such as epilepsy. The service is demand led and the volume of work may therefore increase or decrease over time. In 2018-19, approximately 200,000 journeys were commissioned.

Options: The proposed Framework Agreement will be for two years with an option to extend for a period or periods totalling no more than a further two years.
