The procurement process for the tender titled "PACS1301 - AWARD" has been completed by Buckinghamshire Council via their e-Tendering System. This tender falls under the industry category of Taxi Services, classified as "60120000" under CPV. The contract was awarded on 26th September 2025, with the contract period commencing from 29th September 2025 and concluding on 23rd February 2028. This selective procurement method was conducted using a restricted procedure and involved services to be delivered across a number of locations including the United Kingdom and international regions such as the Channel Islands and Europe.

This tender presents opportunities primarily for businesses specialising in taxi services, and capable of meeting requirements for competitive pricing per mile as stipulated in the contractual terms.
