Summary of the contracting process

Buckinghamshire Council has completed a procurement process for taxi services under the title "Phase 3B - SSTD2406 - 11/12/25 - AWARD" using a selective procurement method via a restricted procedure. The contracting authority, identified as Buckinghamshire Council - e-Tendering System, is located in Aylesbury, United Kingdom. The contract has been awarded to Premium Minibuses & Cars Ltd, which will deliver services across multiple regions including British Overseas Territories and the Channel Islands. The process reached the award stage with the contract period slated from 23rd February 2026 to 23rd February 2030, having completed its tender phase with a closing date on 23rd December 2025. The award notice was published on 21st April 2026 and outlines a contract value of GBP 126,956.13.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses within the transport sector, particularly those offering taxi services. Despite the restricted procedure limiting the pool of potential applicants initially, businesses equipped to provide competitive pricing per mile and meet the service delivery requirements stand to benefit. The international delivery address scope indicates the potential for expansive service provision and growth, especially for established transport operators looking to enhance their market presence in the specified regions. However, it does not cater to SMEs or VCSE businesses according to its suitability criteria.
