## Summary

Leicester City Council procured passenger transport services for a journey identified by the title ENSTRUCT. The requirement covers taxi services and the hire of passenger transport vehicles with drivers, rather than vehicle supply alone. Delivery is in the East Midlands, with Leicester City Council as the buying organisation. The procurement sits within the Council’s passenger transport services requirement and is aimed at providing transport for a specified journey. It is categorised as taxi services, with passenger transport vehicles and drivers as an additional service category. The opportunity is relevant to taxi businesses, private hire operators and other passenger transport providers able to deliver scheduled journeys for a local authority.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 11 September 2026 following a mini competition under the Council’s Dynamic Purchasing System for passenger transport services. Leicester City Council awarded the contract to Skyline Taxis for £40,014. The awarded contract period runs from 14 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. The process used a competitive mini-competition route within the DPS, rather than a standalone open tender. The requirement was evaluated through that competition, with the selected supplier recorded as Skyline Taxis. The procurement is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and the award is active. This is an outcome notice, not an invitation to submit a bid.

This award shows that Leicester City Council uses its passenger transport DPS to source taxi and driver-provided vehicle services for defined journeys in the East Midlands. It is relevant to taxi firms, private hire operators and passenger transport companies with the vehicles, appropriately licensed drivers, scheduling capability and operational capacity to deliver council journeys reliably. Smaller businesses are explicitly considered suitable for this type of work. A credible competitor would need to understand the Council’s DPS requirements, respond effectively to mini competitions and demonstrate dependable journey fulfilment, service continuity and the ability to provide suitable passenger vehicles with drivers. The awarded supplier’s participation indicates that established commercial transport operators can meet the Council’s requirements through this route.
