Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process conducted by Buckinghamshire Council - e-Tendering System for the project titled "Phase 3C - SSWR1404 - 15/01/26 - AWARD" falls under the services category, specifically for taxi services with the classification code 60120000. This process is now in the award stage, having been completed with the contract awarded to Premium Minibuses & Cars Ltd. The contract period is set from 13 April 2026 to 12 April 2030, covering delivery locations including the United Kingdom and various other regions. The procurement was carried out using a selective method through a restricted procedure, with key milestone dates including a tender period that ended on 29 January 2026 and the award date on 10 March 2026.

Organizations similar to or operating in conjunction with Premium Minibuses & Cars Ltd could consider positioning themselves for similar future opportunities. However, the requirements indicated no specific preference for SMEs or VCSEs, suggesting that larger organisations may have a more competitive edge in such contracts.
