Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the provision of taxi services, classified under CPV code 60120000, has been completed by Buckinghamshire Council - e-Tendering System. This award stage concerns "Phase 3B - SSTD1416 - 11/12/25," with operations set to commence on 23rd February 2026, concluding by 23rd February 2030. Based in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire Council invited selective submissions through a restricted procedure. Notably, the tender period ended on 23rd December 2025, with the contract awarded at a value of £92,339.16 to Bucks Minibus Travel t/a Swan Rider on 21st January 2026.

This tender provides significant business growth opportunities, specifically for taxi service providers capable of offering competitive pricing per mile, as outlined in the competition terms. Although not tailored for small or voluntary organisations, larger business entities within the transport sector located in the UK and beyond can benefit substantially from such long-term engagements, enhancing their operational scope across multiple regions, including the British Oversea Territories and Channel Islands. Expertise in reliable and expansive service offerings would further bolster competitive advantages in bidding processes like these.
