Summary of the contracting process

The Oxford City Council is seeking to continue its long-standing Taxi Marshalling Scheme, primarily aimed at enhancing public safety in the city's late-night entertainment area. This procurement falls under the category of public security services and is open for applications until 19 April 2022. The contract is set to begin on 22 April 2022 and will span two years, concluding on 21 April 2023. With a total budget of £90,000, the council expects service provision every Friday and Saturday night from 11:00 p.m. to 4:00 a.m., including potential additional staffing at other taxi ranks as required.

Businesses with experience in security or crowd management, particularly those knowledgeable about city operations and local regulations, would be well-positioned to compete. By securing this contract, successful bidders could enhance their portfolio, build reputation in public sector services, and potentially expand their operations within the local area.
