## Summary

Leicester City Council procured passenger transport for Keyham Lodge School: a taxi service for the journey identified by the school requirement. The procurement also covers hire of passenger vehicles with drivers. The service is for delivery in England. This is a specific school transport requirement rather than a general taxi service contract, so it is most relevant to operators able to provide suitable passenger transport for the journey concerned.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to HANSOM AIRPORT TAXIS. The award date was 22 October 2026, and the award value is £19,832. The contract period runs from 26 October 2026 to 31 July 2028. The requirement was competed through a mini-competition under Leicester City Council’s Dynamic Purchasing System for passenger transport services. The stated tender deadline was 22 October 2026. The available procurement details do not set out evaluation criteria or separate lots.

This award shows Leicester City Council buying a defined school taxi-transport service through its passenger transport Dynamic Purchasing System, with the requirement won by a large taxi operator. Suppliers seeking to compete for this specific type of work should be able to deliver the required school journey reliably using passenger vehicles with drivers, and be able to participate in the Council’s DPS mini-competitions. The requirement was marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises, indicating that businesses of those types could be considered alongside larger operators. The commercial fit is strongest for taxi and passenger transport firms with the operational capacity to cover the school’s journey and meet the Council’s service needs.
