Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process, concluded by Buckinghamshire Council, centred around the tender titled "Summer Operations Week 6 - SCWS1404 - 05/09/2025 - AWARD" in the taxi services industry. This contract called for the submission of bids with pricing per mile, as stipulated, and was conducted through a restricted procedure – indicative of a selective procurement method. Located in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom, the tender was poised at the award stage, with the contract award dated on 9th September 2025. The contract period commenced on 11th September 2025 and is set to conclude on 1st December 2030. The process was completed with an award value of £59,537.78, and the notice of award was published on 15th October 2025.

This procurement presents growth opportunities for companies skilled in providing taxi services, particularly those capable of servicing expansive regions stretching from the British Overseas Territories to the Channel Islands and within Europe. Ground transport service providers, particularly those familiar with selective tendering procedures, are well-suited to competing and servicing such contracts. Given the buyer, Buckinghamshire Council, comprehensive delivery capabilities and reliable service execution are significant factors that could contribute to gaining favour in future bids. Even though the current tender award does not cater specifically to SMEs or VCSEs, larger entities or consortia with the capability to manage such contracts across cross-region locations will find considerable opportunity in engaging with similar procurement exercises.
