Summary of the contracting process

Buckinghamshire Council has completed the procurement stage for the contract titled "SCWB1426" under the industry category of Taxi Services. The awarded contract, valued at £128,774.37, is situated in Aylesbury with wider service coverage that includes the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, and the United Kingdom. This procurement process utilised a selective method, specifically a restricted procedure, and progressed through an initial tender deadline on 3rd April 2025. The contract will commence on 1st June 2025 and run until 1st December 2030. The award status was officially announced on 17th July 2025.

This tender presents a significant business growth opportunity for companies in the transport and taxi service sector, particularly those able to provide extensive service coverage as outlined. Since the procurement process followed a restricted procedure, businesses with established operations conducive to competitive pricing and scalability have significant prospects. Organisations suited for this competition include those with logistical capabilities to serve the diverse geographic locations specified, backed by a reliable service provision system. Nonetheless, the absence of SME and VCSE considerations suggests that the tender might best suit larger or well-established enterprises. AJ Cars (Aylesbury) LTD successfully secured this contract, indicating potential for local businesses to engage with regional authorities under similar frameworks.
