The requirement is classified as taxi services, with associated provision for hiring passenger transport vehicles with a driver. Delivery is in the East Midlands, supporting a council-managed transport need connected with Pindar Nursery. The service falls within the broader passenger transport market and is relevant to taxi operators, private-hire firms and other businesses able to provide passenger vehicles with drivers. The buyer is Leicester City Council, based at City Hall in Leicester. The procurement concerns service delivery rather than the supply of vehicles, equipment or construction works. The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a mini competition under Leicester City Council’s Dynamic Purchasing System PAN3059 for Passenger Transport Services. The award was made on 12 August 2026 to CityRides LTD, for £20,931. The contract period runs from 14 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. The tender’s estimated value was also £20,931. The process used a dynamic purchasing system route rather than a standalone open tender. The published outcome identifies one awarded supplier and an active award. The opportunity was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The procurement record does not set out a separate evaluation weighting or scoring basis. This award shows Leicester City Council’s demand for externally provided taxi and driver-led passenger transport for a named nursery journey in the East Midlands. It also shows the commercial route into this buyer’s passenger transport work: suppliers compete through mini competitions under the Council’s PAN3059 Dynamic Purchasing System. A credible future competitor would therefore need to operate taxi or private-hire passenger vehicles with drivers, meet the Council’s requirements for journey-specific transport, and be able to respond to DPS mini competitions. The procurement was identified as suitable for SMEs, so smaller local operators may be well placed where they have the vehicles, licensed drivers, operational reliability and administrative capacity needed to deliver council passenger transport services. ## Notice This contract is for the provision of transport services - journey stated in the title of this notice.
