The requirement covers taxi services and the hire of passenger transport vehicles with drivers, supporting the Council’s transport needs. This is a services contract delivered within the East Midlands, with the Council as the buying organisation. The procurement relates to individual passenger journeys rather than the supply of vehicles or a broader transport infrastructure project. It is relevant to taxi operators, private-hire firms and other passenger transport providers able to provide journeys for the Council under its passenger transport arrangements. The requirement was run as a specific competition within the Council’s wider Dynamic Purchasing System for passenger transport services, indicating a route used to source individual transport requirements from participating providers. The procurement is complete and was awarded on 2 September 2026 to Everest Taxis. The awarded contract value is £27,300 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 4 September 2026 to 25 December 2026. It followed a mini competition under the Council’s Dynamic Purchasing System for Passenger Transport Services and is recorded as an open procedure. The tender submission deadline was 2 September 2026 at 9:00am. The procurement was evaluated for taxi and driver-provided passenger transport services, with the requirement presented as a single transport-services opportunity. The award is active, and the Council’s published outcome identifies Everest Taxis as the selected supplier. For suppliers that did not win this award, the procurement demonstrates that Leicester City Council buys discrete passenger transport requirements through mini competitions within its Dynamic Purchasing System. A credible future supplier would need to operate taxi or private-hire passenger transport services, provide vehicles with drivers, and organise reliable journeys for the Council’s service users. The requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises, so participation is not limited by organisational type. Firms should be able to respond to individual journey requirements, meet the operational standards set by the Council’s passenger transport arrangements, and compete through the DPS route. Experience delivering dependable, scheduled passenger journeys would support a strong position when comparable requirements return. ## Notice This contract is for the provision of transport services - journey stated in the title of this notice.
