This contract used a selective procurement method under a restricted procedure, with key processes completed by the end of the tender period on 3rd April 2025. The contract, now awarded to The Taxi People Ltd, will commence on 1st June 2025 and run until 1st December 2030. The total value of the award is £97,554.68, and it covers the CPV classification 60120000 - Taxi services.

Businesses specialising in transportation solutions, particularly those able to manage logistics across diverse and extensive territories, would have seen this tender as ideal. While the awarded company, The Taxi People Ltd, demonstrates the potential success for those with a solid track record and competitive pricing structures, this process also signals future opportunities for similarly capable businesses to engage in public sector contracts.
