## Summary

Leicester City Council has procured passenger transport for a journey identified as “Pindar Nursery”. The requirement is for taxi and other passenger transport services, including vehicles supplied with a driver. The journey is the stated scope; no further route or passenger details are provided here. The work is associated with Leicester, in the East Midlands. This is a transport-services requirement rather than a vehicle purchase, and is relevant to firms able to provide taxi or chauffeured passenger journeys for a local authority. Leicester City Council is the buyer.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Azoom Taxis. The award was made on 24 September 2026, following a mini-competition under the council’s Dynamic Purchasing System for passenger transport services. The awarded value is £30,654. The contract period runs from 28 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. The tender’s stated estimated value was also £30,654. The process record gives no evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements beyond identifying the requirement as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The competition deadline was 24 September 2026. The published information describes one journey requirement, with no lot breakdown.

This award shows that Leicester City Council buys individual passenger journeys for nursery-related transport through mini-competitions within its passenger transport Dynamic Purchasing System. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need to provide taxi or passenger transport vehicles with drivers and demonstrate the operational capacity to deliver the specified journey reliably. The recorded award was made to a large supplier, while the requirement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses, indicating that smaller taxi firms may be relevant competitors. Firms focused on general vehicle hire without drivers, or unrelated transport services, are less closely matched to this demand. The requirement provides evidence of local-authority demand for journey-specific transport; it does not establish wider service needs beyond this nursery journey.
