The requirement is principally for taxi services, with associated hire of passenger transport vehicles with drivers (CPV 60120000 and 60170000). The service is connected with transport in the East Midlands and is intended to support travel involving Homefield College in Sileby. The council is the buying organisation and the requirement falls within the services category. This is a single journey requirement rather than a wider transport network or general vehicle hire contract, so it is most relevant to operators able to provide reliable, driver-operated passenger transport for this route. The procurement has been completed and awarded. Leicester City Council selected AZOOM TAXIS following a mini competition under its Dynamic Purchasing System for Passenger Transport Services. The process used an open procedure. The award was made on 18 August 2026 for £24,336, with the contract running from 8 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. The award is active. The published information identifies the transport requirement and the selected supplier, but does not set out a separate quality or price weighting. At award stage, the council was no longer seeking tenders for this requirement. The contract value and period relate to this award only and should not be treated as a wider DPS value or duration. This award demonstrates a defined requirement for driver-operated passenger transport serving a college journey in the East Midlands. Businesses considering comparable council work would need to provide taxi or passenger vehicle hire services with drivers, organise dependable coverage for a specific education-related route, and maintain sufficient operational capacity throughout the service period. The successful supplier is recorded as a large taxi business, indicating that the buyer accepted a provider with the scale to deliver the journey consistently. The relevant competitive route is the council’s Dynamic Purchasing System and its mini competitions, so suppliers seeking similar work would need to understand that system and be able to respond to individual transport requirements. ## Notice This contract is for the provision of transport services - journey stated in the title of this notice.
