Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process was led by Buckinghamshire Council - e-Tendering System for a contract titled "SBPS1411 - AWARD" in the taxi services industry category. This selective procurement followed a restricted procedure and was completed with an active award on 1st June 2025. The procurement covers services relevant to various regions including the United Kingdom and British Overseas Territories. The contract period begins on 1st June 2025 and ends on 1st December 2030. Interested suppliers were required to submit prices per mile as detailed in the competition terms, with tender submissions closing on 3rd April 2025. Buckinghamshire Council facilitated the procurement from Aylesbury, United Kingdom.

This tender provides significant opportunities for firms within the taxi and transport services industry, particularly those capable of servicing a diverse geographical area over a long contract period. While the procurement process is complete, businesses such as transport operators could look for similar future opportunities with Buckinghamshire Council. However, the tender was not explicitly oriented towards SMEs or VCSEs, indicating a preference for established firms with significant capabilities. The contract, awarded for a significant value of £108,824.49, was secured by the supplier TWK Ltd, which is well-positioned in Aylesbury to perform the required services. Future bidders can prepare by ensuring competitive per-mile pricing and meeting the specified procedural requirements to increase their prospects of success in similar contracts.
