## Summary

Leicester City Council procured passenger transport services for the journey identified as Ansaar Day Centre. The requirement is described as transport services and classified as taxi services, including the hire of passenger vehicles with drivers. Delivery is in the East Midlands. The buyer is Leicester City Council, based in Leicester. The published scope identifies a journey rather than a wider transport network or a range of separately listed routes, so this is a specific passenger journey requirement for the day centre. The service is intended to provide transport to Ansaar Day Centre; the procurement information does not further describe passenger numbers, vehicle specifications or service frequency.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to hansom taxis following a mini-competition under the council’s Dynamic Purchasing System for passenger transport services. The award date was 19 October 2026. The awarded value is £33,813. The contract period runs from 22 October 2026 to 31 July 2028. The tender deadline was 19 October 2026. The process was a mini-competition; no evaluation weighting or detailed award criteria are stated in the available procurement information. The tender is categorised as a service, and the council marked it as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. One supplier is named as the award recipient.

This award shows Leicester City Council uses its passenger transport dynamic purchasing system to source taxi services for a defined journey serving a day centre. The selected supplier was identified as a large business, and the council marked the requirement unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. A credible competitor for this particular requirement would need to provide passenger transport by taxi or a vehicle with a driver and be able to meet the council’s route-specific service needs. Experience delivering dependable journeys for a day-centre service would be relevant to this buyer’s requirement. The award also demonstrates that the council buys this work through a mini-competition within its passenger transport system, rather than as a standalone open tender.
