Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process for the "Summer Operations Week 3 - MCOT 1211" contract has been completed and was conducted by Buckinghamshire Council using their e-Tendering System. This contract, focused in the taxi services industry (CPV: 60120000), encompasses operations across various locations including the United Kingdom and international destinations such as Europe and the Channel Islands. The procurement followed a "restricted procedure" method, indicating a selective approach to inviting potential suppliers to bid. The tendering process reached its award stage on 20th August 2025, with the contract period running from 1st September 2025 to 1st December 2030, and the total contract value awarded to Executive Private Hire (EPH) Ltd, trading as Cabs4U, stands at £68,703.90 GBP.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in taxi services, as it demands expertise in logistical operations across a broad geographic scope, including international locations. This notification pertains to taxi service providers who possess the capability to manage extensive transportation operations efficiently. While the procurement process was managed under a restricted procedure, indicating a controlled selection of candidates, businesses with proven track records in reliable and scalable operations could find such opportunities conducive to growth. Notably, this contract does not focus on SMEs or VCSE entities, which means larger or more established businesses in the transport industry are particularly well-suited to participate in similar future procurements managed by the Buckinghamshire Council.
