## Summary

Leicestershire County Council procured a passenger transport service: a wheelchair-accessible taxi associated with SEN20061, serving Dorothy Goodman Upper Barwell Lane. The requirement is for transport rather than vehicle supply, construction or general goods. The named delivery area is England, with the buying organisation based at County Hall in Glenfield, Leicester. The service appears to support a special educational needs setting, based on the SEN reference and the named Dorothy Goodman location. Businesses relevant to this requirement are taxi and private-hire operators able to provide wheelchair-accessible passenger transport for the council’s specified journey requirements. The procurement was for a single transport service requirement rather than a published group of separate lots.

The procurement has been awarded following a completed open procedure. Leicestershire County Council awarded the contract to YAKUB TAXI LTD on 21 August 2026 for £48,360. The contract period runs from 24 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. The tender submission deadline was 20 August 2026 at 23:59. The evaluation used the open procedure for transport services, with the requirement classified under CPV 60000000. YAKUB TAXI LTD is recorded as the active supplier. The procurement was marked as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The published outcome therefore identifies both the selected operator and the full awarded contract value for this passenger transport service.

For a future requirement from Leicestershire County Council, credible competitors would need to operate wheelchair-accessible taxis and deliver dependable passenger transport for a special educational needs setting. The awarded supplier was a large taxi business, while the procurement was marked unsuitable for SMEs, indicating that the buyer expected a provider with sufficient operational capacity rather than a small, informal transport service. Relevant strengths would include suitable accessible vehicles, experienced drivers, reliable scheduling and the ability to maintain consistent service for the named location and passenger needs. Operators already providing accessible school or assisted passenger transport would have directly relevant experience. The requirement also shows demand for a dedicated taxi service rather than broader fleet, logistics or general transport work.
