## Summary

Leicester City Council procured transport services for the journey identified as “37279 – PINDAR NURSERY”. The requirement is taxi and passenger transport vehicle services with a driver, supporting passenger travel in the East Midlands. The contracting authority is Leicester City Council, based in Leicester. This is a service requirement rather than a goods or construction contract, and is relevant to taxi operators, private-hire firms and other providers of driven passenger transport. The stated classifications cover taxi services and the hire of passenger transport vehicles with a driver. The requirement sits within the Council’s passenger transport activity and concerns a specific nursery journey rather than a broad transport network or general vehicle supply arrangement.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 14 September 2026 to AZOOM TAXIS following a mini competition under the Council’s Dynamic Purchasing System for Passenger Transport Services. The award value is £23,634 including the stated GBP currency. The awarded contract period runs from 17 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. The process used an open procedure, within the Council’s DPS route, and the tender record identifies the requirement as a services contract. The tender deadline was 14 September 2026 at 09:00. Leicester City Council recorded the award as active, with AZOOM TAXIS as the selected supplier. The opportunity is therefore an awarded requirement rather than a current tender.

This award shows Leicester City Council has a recurring operational need for dependable, driven passenger transport for a named nursery journey. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement of this type would be established taxi or private-hire operators able to provide safe, reliable passenger journeys and maintain service continuity over a sustained contract. Relevant capability includes suitable passenger vehicles, appropriately authorised drivers, dependable dispatch and journey-management arrangements, and the capacity to meet a Council service specification consistently. Experience of school, nursery, assisted or other passenger transport would help demonstrate credibility, particularly where punctuality, safeguarding, communication and continuity are important. Larger transport businesses may be better positioned for the stated requirement, which was recorded as unsuitable for SMEs and VCSEs.
