Summary of the contracting process

Buckinghamshire Council has concluded the procurement process for a taxi services contract titled "SPAR1425 - AWARD" under the classification CPV 60120000. This tender is awarded using a selective procurement method through a restricted procedure. The project spans numerous geographic locations, including the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, and parts of Europe, with a significant contract period starting on 3rd November 2025 and ending on 1st December 2030. The award was made active on 27th October 2025, reflecting the completion of the tender phase and the transition into the award phase. The total value of the contract is £41,413.47.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses providing taxi services, particularly those situated in or capable of serving the outlined regions. Companies in the transport sector, especially those specialising in private hire services, are well-placed to expand their client base and enhance their service offerings through this contract. The process, however, was selective and may not have been suited for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) due to its restricted nature. By securing such a contract, participating businesses can strengthen their market position and establish long-term partnerships with local councils.
