Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the contract titled "Phase 3C - SHIL1504 - 14/01/26 - AWARD" has been completed. Buckinghamshire Council, operating via its e-Tendering System, facilitated this tender focused on taxi services, classified under CPV code 60120000. The procurement follows a selective method using a restricted procedure, impacting regions including British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, the United Kingdom, and others globally. The tender period concluded on 29th January 2026, with the awarding process completed by 28th April 2026. "Bucks Minibus Travel t/a Swan Rider" has been awarded the supplier role, beginning the contract term from 13th April 2026 until 12th April 2030, valued at £102,207.06.

This tender presents opportunities primarily in the transport and logistics sector, especially for businesses specialising in taxi services. Given its non-suitability for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), larger businesses with established operations, particularly in the stated locations, would find it advantageous to compete. The award underlines potential growth through service expansion across varied geographical markets, leveraging the contractual commitment from Buckinghamshire Council. Organisations with capabilities to meet the specified terms and conditions, such as competitive pricing structures per mile and compliance with the tender's procedural requirements, would be well-suited to gain from such opportunities.
