## Summary

Leicester City Council has procured passenger transport services for the journey identified as “Oaklands”. The requirement is for a specific passenger journey, rather than a general transport service, and falls within taxi services and passenger vehicles with drivers. The delivery location is in the East Midlands, United Kingdom. The council is the buyer and the contract was awarded following a mini-competition under its passenger transport Dynamic Purchasing System. This is a council transport requirement for suppliers able to provide the specified journey; the procurement does not describe a wider route network or additional service scope.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to AZOOM. The award date was 24 September 2026. The awarded value is £22,698. The contract period runs from 28 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. The competition was run as a mini-competition under Leicester City Council’s Dynamic Purchasing System for passenger transport services. The submission deadline was 24 September 2026 at 9:00am. The published procurement information does not set out evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements beyond the competition route and the specific transport requirement.

This award shows Leicester City Council’s demand for journey-specific passenger transport through its passenger transport Dynamic Purchasing System. A supplier seeking to compete for a comparable requirement would need to provide taxi or other passenger transport vehicles with drivers and demonstrate that it can reliably deliver the specified journey. The council used a mini-competition within its existing system, so a credible competitor would need to be eligible to participate through that route and respond to individual journey requirements. The award went to AZOOM, identified as a large supplier; the procurement does not describe special accreditations, vehicle specifications or further capability thresholds. The opportunity is most relevant to passenger transport operators with the capacity to serve council journeys in the East Midlands.
