Summary of the contracting process

Buckinghamshire Council, operating through its e-Tendering System, has completed the procurement process titled "PBLU1320 - AWARD" for taxi services under the industry classification of CPV 60120000. The process followed a restricted procedure as part of a selective procurement method. The tender, primarily focused on service delivery across multiple locations including the United Kingdom and British Overseas Territories, reached completion with an active award status on 22 April 2025. This contract will run from 24 April 2025 to 22 February 2026, providing a significant timeline for service provision.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities for companies engaged in providing transport and taxi services. While not specifically suited for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs), the contract value of £5,152.47 indicates a notable scope for business augmentation. Companies like 24x7 Ltd and other awarded suppliers stand to benefit from long-term engagement and service delivery under Buckinghamshire Council's commission. Such opportunities are apt for businesses capable of scaling operations to cover extensive geographical areas and adhere to competitive pricing frameworks.
