## Summary

Leicester City Council procured passenger transport services for a journey associated with Homefield College. The requirement is primarily for taxi services, with an additional requirement for passenger transport vehicles supplied with drivers. Delivery is in England, and the buying organisation is Leicester City Council. This is a service contract for providing the specified journey rather than for vehicle supply alone: the operator is expected to provide suitable passenger transport and the driver needed to complete the journey. The procurement sits within the Council’s wider passenger transport requirements and is relevant to taxi operators, private-hire firms and other passenger transport businesses able to provide driver-led journeys in the required area. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a mini-competition under the Council’s Dynamic Purchasing System for passenger transport services. The award was made on 2 September 2026 to AZOOM TAXIS for £33,579. The contract period runs from 9 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. The tender submission deadline was 2 September 2026 at 9:00am. The procurement method is described as “Other” within the published process information. There are no lots or separate awards recorded: the single award covers the taxi and driver-provided passenger transport requirement associated with Homefield College. Leicester City Council is the buyer, and AZOOM TAXIS is the selected supplier. The contract is recorded as active and the overall tender status is complete.

For a supplier assessing future Council requirements, this award demonstrates demand for dedicated, driver-led passenger transport linked to an individual institutional journey. A credible competitor would need to operate taxi or private-hire services, provide suitable passenger transport vehicles with drivers, and deliver reliably in England, with the operational capacity to cover the specified journey throughout the service period. The Council uses a Dynamic Purchasing System and mini-competitions for this type of passenger transport, so businesses should be prepared to work through that route and respond to individual journey requirements. The requirement was identified as suitable for SMEs and VCSEs, indicating that smaller specialist operators can be relevant competitors where they can demonstrate dependable vehicles, drivers and service delivery.
