Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "MCOT1202 - AWARD" was conducted by Buckinghamshire Council through their e-Tendering System. This selective procurement process, described as a Restricted procedure, focused on taxi services within the services category under the CPV classification "60120000". The contract was awarded on 22nd December 2025, with a planned start date of 6th January 2026, continuing until 1st August 2030. The services cover various locations, including the United Kingdom, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, and several others globally. The completed tender stage required transport operators to submit pricing per mile, following the stipulated competition terms and conditions.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in transportation services, particularly those with expertise in managing large-scale contracts across multiple regions. However, it was noted that the procurement opportunity is not deemed suitable for small or medium enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). With Executive Private Hire (EPH) Ltd, trading as Cabs4U, winning the award valued at £68,048.72, businesses in the private hire sector could aim to enhance their operational scope and align with similar tenders that consider price competitiveness and regional service capabilities.
