Tender description

This is notice of termination of PAN2598 - ended 03/08/2024. Leicester City Council is seeking to procure passenger transport services. We are hereby establishing a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) from which we will procure the services as described in the Specification. The DPS will be for five years and six months. The Council procures journeys for children, young people and adult service users, as well as for Council staff using taxi providers. These journeys are commonly planned e.g. trips to and from school or unplanned e.g. one-off journeys to an appointment. Those who access our services using taxis may require additional support or supervision which must be provided through a passenger assistant and arranged by the taxi Provider. On some occasions a parent may be required to be the passenger assistant. Some of those who access our services using taxis have additional needs of the vehicle e.g. the size of vehicle or ramps and wheelchair accessibility or a need for the Driver and/or passenger assistant to have specialist training e.g. how to help someone with a medical condition such as epilepsy. Please note the deadline for submission of initial Request to Participate (RTPs) is 20th October 2021. Any RTPs submitted after this date/time will be deemed to be submitted on 1st February 2022 (the Commencement Date of the DPS). Submissions may be made at any time during the DPS Term. The DPS will run from 1st February 2022 until 31 July 2027. The contract dates in Section 1 are incorrect due to a technical issue with Contracts Finder

About the buyer

Leicester City Council buys as a local authority, advertising most opportunities through East Midlands Tenders, its regional supplier portal. Larger contracts appear on Find a Tender instead, where any supplier awarded a contract must also register from April 2026. Some contracts run through outside frameworks, including ESPO and the Government Commercial Agency. Suppliers apply to those bodies directly to become approved framework suppliers. A two-year procurement plan for 2026 to 2028 is published on the council's open data site. Supplier selection also weighs social value, such as local job creation and environmental impact, alongside price.

UK local government drives £140bn in annual procurement, led by social protection (£66.6bn) and education (£57.1bn).

Over the past 5 years, most of Leicester City Council's contract awards have been in transport services, construction work and software and information systems.
