Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by Buckinghamshire Council through its e-Tendering System has concluded with the award of the contract titled "Summer Operations Week 4 - CCTG1601 - 22 August 2025 - AWARD" to "The Taxi People Ltd". This contract falls under the industry category of taxi services (CPV code 60120000) and spans multiple locations including the United Kingdom and its territories. The procurement method utilised was a restricted procedure, indicative of a selective approach. The contract period is set from 1st September 2025 to 1st December 2030. The tender process has completed its award stage, with the contract valued at £67,115.36, effective from 28th August 2025, as updated most recently on 28th January 2026.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in transport services, particularly those in taxi operations, as it covers services across diverse geographical areas. Companies with established routes and competitive pricing strategies are well-positioned to benefit from such long-term engagements. The competitive selective process points towards businesses with a capable operational background standing a favourable chance of success. However, the procurement is deemed unsuited for SMEs and voluntary community and social enterprises, indicating opportunity predominantly for larger, established businesses. This presents an opportunity for growth in service outreach and market presence for those able to meet the contractual demands.
