## Summary

Leicester City Council commissioned passenger transport for Leicester College, covering a specified journey. The service is taxi transport and the hire of passenger vehicles with drivers (CPV 60120000). The work is associated with Leicester and the East Midlands. This is a council transport requirement for a defined journey, rather than a general transport service across the authority. The buyer is Leicester City Council.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to hansom taxis. Leicester City Council ran a mini-competition under its Passenger Transport Services Dynamic Purchasing System. The award was made on 28 September 2026, with a contract period from 29 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. The awarded contract value is £37,206. The submission deadline was 28 September 2026. The procurement covered one journey requirement; the published information does not state a separate scoring or evaluation basis. Small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises were considered suitable to participate.

This award evidences a council requirement for taxi transport on a defined journey serving Leicester College, procured through a mini-competition within Leicester City Council’s Passenger Transport Services Dynamic Purchasing System. Suppliers already equipped to provide passenger vehicles with drivers, organise journey-specific transport and respond to competitive calls under a council purchasing system are best placed to compete when this requirement returns. The recorded contract is a single, defined college journey rather than a broad network or multi-route service, so operators able to deliver a focused service at this scale are relevant. The suitability designation includes SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, indicating that organisations of these types can be credible participants.
