## Summary

The procurement process led by Leicester City Council involved an open tender for the hiring of passenger transport vehicles with a driver, under the title "35183 - ORCHARD MEAD ACADEMY". This project falls under the services industry category and was carried out across several regions in the United Kingdom, including the North East, North West, and London. The procurement stage is currently at the award phase, with key dates including the tender end on 25th July 2024 and the contract period running from 30th August 2024 to 31st July 2028.
