## Summary

Leicester City Council has completed a public procurement process titled "35701 - ELLESMERE COLLEGE" under the CPV classification 60170000 for the hire of passenger transport vehicles with a driver. The procurement used an open procedure, and the contract was awarded to Skyline Taxis (GB) Ltd. The contract has a total value of £41,496 GBP and spans from 3rd September 2024 to 31st July 2028. This tender was pertinent to multiple regions within the United Kingdom, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East, South West, and England as a whole.

This tender presents a significant business growth opportunity for companies involved in passenger transport services. An open procedure allows businesses across a broad range of regions to compete, though it is especially suitable for larger-scale entities, given that it is not specifically targeted at SMEs or VCSEs. Companies specialising in secure and reliable transport services would find this opportunity particularly advantageous. Additionally, the extended four-year contract period ensures sustained business engagement over time, providing a stable revenue stream and potential growth in operational capacities. Moreover, businesses able to service multiple regions within the UK are ideally positioned to benefit from this contract.
