## Summary

Leicestershire County Council is initiating a public procurement process for transport services, specifically an eight-seater taxi service for Birch Wood Vale School. The procurement falls under the 'Transport services (excluding Waste transport)' category and is planned to take place in England, United Kingdom. This tender is currently in the planning stage, with the budget period running from April 2025 to March 2026, and the contract period scheduled to start on 16th May 2025, ending on 31st July 2026. Interested parties should note that the future notice date is 25th March 2026.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in transport services, particularly those capable of providing specialised taxi services like an eight-seater capacity. With a budget of £10,129 available for the specified period, this contract is particularly suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) looking to expand their portfolio in the public sector. While this tender process does not currently recognise VCSE involvement, the focus on SMEs provides a platform for local businesses to compete effectively, enhance visibility in the region, and secure governmental contracts that could lead to more opportunities in the future.
