## Summary

Leicester City Council has recently completed a public procurement process for the title "FEW1095 - Electric Buses - Phase 4" within the transport equipment industry category. The contracting authority initiated a direct award procedure to supply six electric buses for council contracted services, with a total value of £2,130,000. The tender period ended on 20 January 2022, while the contract commenced on 1 September 2022 and will run until 23 May 2023. Leicester City Council is located at City Hall, 115 Charles Street, Leicester, LE1 1FZ, United Kingdom.

This opportunity may foster business growth, particularly for companies specialising in manufacturing or supplying electric transportation solutions. Businesses that could successfully compete include established firms in the transport equipment sector, especially those capable of scaling production to meet the demands of large contracts. Smaller or innovative suppliers focused on sustainable transport might also find this procurement an advantageous entry point into council contracts, benefitting from the ongoing shift towards eco-friendly transport solutions.

## Notice

Continuation of provision - Supply of a further x6 (six) electric buses for use on the remaining council contracted services, again operated from the same depots, using existing charging equipment. Further funding has recently been received through the DfT Zebra Fast Track.
