## Summary

Leicestershire County Council procured specialist transport services for Ashmount School, identified as SEN19006-SEN-TAXI-Ashmount School. The requirement is for taxi transport supporting special educational needs provision, rather than a general goods or works contract. The procurement falls within transport services (CPV 60000000) and is categorised as a service. Delivery is in England, with the buying organisation based at County Hall in Glenfield, Leicester. The named requirement is specific to Ashmount School, so it is most relevant to taxi operators and passenger transport businesses able to provide school-related SEN transport in the Leicestershire area.

The procurement has been awarded following an open procedure. Bids were due by 7 August 2026 at 23:59, and the contract was awarded on 9 August 2026. The successful supplier is PREMIER TAXIS LEICESTER LTD. The awarded value is £22,880. The contract period runs from 24 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. The tender had a single requirement rather than separately described lots, and the overall estimated procurement value was also £22,880. The process is complete and the award is active. The published outcome therefore records both the selected supplier and the agreed contract scale for this Ashmount School transport requirement.

For a supplier assessing future demand, this award shows that Leicestershire County Council uses an open procedure to procure dedicated taxi transport for a named special school. A credible competitor would need to operate passenger vehicles suitable for school journeys, organise dependable recurring transport and understand the practical requirements of transporting pupils with special educational needs. Local operating capacity around Leicester and the wider Leicestershire area would be commercially relevant, as would the ability to manage a council contract for the full school-year service period. The selected supplier is a large taxi business, indicating that established transport operators with sufficient operational capacity are well placed for this type of requirement.
