Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the contract titled "SMAC1403 - AWARD" has concluded with the contract award stage. Buckinghamshire Council, serving as the purchasing organisation, has secured taxi services under this contract. The procurement uses a selective method known as the Restricted Procedure, suited for a closed competition format. The contract spans a length of over five years, commencing on 1st June 2025 and concluding on 1st December 2030. The Council's e-Tendering System facilitated this process, located in Aylesbury, United Kingdom, within the industry category of taxi services (CPV code 60120000). The award was finalised on 2nd June 2025.

This contract offers significant business growth opportunities in the transportation sector. It is ideal for established transport operators capable of providing competitive pricing per mile. Although not specifically suited to small or voluntary and community sector enterprises, larger operators with experience in managing extensive service contracts across various geographical areas, including British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, and the United Kingdom, would find substantial opportunities through the contract delivery period. The awarded supplier, 24x7 Ltd, demonstrates the potential for success in such contracts by offering solutions tailored to meet the Council's transport needs effectively.
