This contract, identified by CPV code 60120000, covers a wide geographical area including the United Kingdom and several British Overseas Territories. The procurement, following a restricted procedure under a selective method, concluded with an award on 26th June 2025. Key dates include the tender period closing on 25th June 2025, and the contract commencing on 30th June 2025, lasting until 1st December 2030. The buyer is Buckinghamshire Council, noted for its central location in Aylesbury, and the award has been granted to Budget Cars Ltd, located in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specializing in taxi services to grow by partnering with a major local government authority. Although specifically suitable for well-established businesses rather than SMEs or VCSEs due to its scale and restricted access, it allows the successful supplier to secure a long-term engagement until 2030. Companies that can offer comprehensive coverage and operate effectively across the United Kingdom, extending to various territories, are well-positioned to benefit. The consistent demand for taxi services offers potential for stable revenue streams throughout the duration of the contract.
