Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process conducted by Buckinghamshire Council involved the selective awarding of a contract to Chalfont Taxis Limited for taxi services, classified under CPV code 60120000. The process, completed under a restricted procedure, ended with the award dated 21st November 2025, while the tender period concluded on 20th November 2025. The contract period is scheduled to commence on 24th November 2025 and will continue until 1st August 2030. The services will be delivered across a range of locations including the United Kingdom, with a focus on Buckinghamshire. The value of the contract is £74,162.16. This procurement was initiated as a tender and is currently in the award stage, having reached completion.

This tender represents a significant business opportunity for firms specialised in providing transportation services, particularly those with expertise in taxi operations. The contract provides a steady long-term engagement which could be particularly advantageous for businesses looking to expand their operations geographically and increase their service offerings. However, as the procurement did not invite bids from small and medium enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs), larger companies or entities capable of meeting the scale and requirements specified in the restricted procedure would be optimally positioned to leverage this opportunity for business growth.
