## Summary

Leicester City Council has procured passenger transport by taxi for a journey associated with Leicester College. The requirement is described as transport services for a journey, rather than a broader transport operation; the service involves carrying passengers in vehicles with a driver. Delivery is in the East Midlands, and the buyer is Leicester City Council. This is a local authority transport requirement relevant to taxi operators and passenger transport firms able to provide the specified journey. The contract sits within the council’s passenger transport services purchasing arrangements, but the available description does not give further route or passenger details.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a mini-competition under the council’s dynamic purchasing system for passenger transport services. The contract went to SKYLINE TAXI for £37,674. The award date was 1 October 2026, and the contract period runs from 5 October 2026 to 31 July 2027. The stated tender deadline was 1 October 2026 at 09:00. The procurement used an open procedure. Small and medium-sized businesses and voluntary, community and social enterprises were identified as suitable. The published information does not state the evaluation criteria, so the basis on which competing offers were compared cannot be described here.

For taxi and passenger transport operators serving Leicester and the wider East Midlands, this award shows that Leicester City Council buys journey-specific transport for Leicester College through a mini-competition within its passenger transport dynamic purchasing system. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need to provide taxi vehicles with drivers and reliably deliver the specified passenger journey. This is a focused transport service rather than a large infrastructure or fleet contract, making it relevant to operators able to fulfil discrete journeys as well as larger firms. The council identified SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises as suitable participants, indicating that these organisation types can be relevant to this purchasing route. SKYLINE TAXI was selected for this requirement.
