Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process managed by Buckinghamshire Council, operating through its e-Tendering System, centres on a contract for taxi services, classified under the CPV code 60120000. This process has reached the award stage, with a completion date noted as 26th November 2025. The contract was previously tendered through a selective procurement method described as a restricted procedure. The tender title, "SMAP3402 - 23/10/2025 - AWARD," highlights the award completion date, with the tender submissions having closed on 28th October 2025. The contract period runs from 6th November 2025 to 13th April 2030, with service provisions applicable in territories including British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, the Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom.

This procurement offers significant prospects for businesses specialising in transportation services, particularly those equipped to provide competitive pricing models, which was an essential criterion in the bidding process. While the winning bidder, Transport Wizard, is a well-placed supplier, the tender underscores broader opportunities for companies to grow by aligning with public sector needs and delivering high-calibre service operations over extended periods. Businesses with the capability to operate at an international level, adhering to stringent pricing structures and transportation demands, could find similar future tenders beneficial for strategic expansion.
