Summary of the contracting process

Buckinghamshire Council, through its e-Tendering System, has completed a procurement process for the provision of taxi services under the tender titled "SWIP1503 - AWARD." This procurement falls under the services category, specifically targeting taxi services, and engages various regions including the United Kingdom, Channel Islands, and further afield. The process employed a selective procurement method with a restricted procedure. The tender process concluded on 29th May 2025, and the contract period is set from 2nd June 2025 to 30th March 2030. Notably, this tender reached the award stage, marking the completion of the procurement process.

This award presents significant business growth opportunities, especially for firms operating in the transport and logistics sector. Companies that specialize in taxi and transport services, and can flexibly scale operations across multiple regions, stand to benefit from such contracts. Although suitability for SMEs and VCSEs is not explicitly indicated, larger transport operators like Gari Transport Ltd, which has been named the supplier, are likely to be well-suited for competing in similar procurement opportunities. Engaging in such tenders can not only expand a company's operational footprint but also enhance its reputation through fulfilling public sector contracts.
