Summary of the contracting process

Buckinghamshire Council, operating through its e-Tendering System, has completed the award phase for a procurement process titled "MHAM1102 - AWARD" in the services category, specifically taxi services. This process used a selective, restricted procedure as the procurement method. Although the tender period concluded on 29th January 2026, the contract period is set to start on the 3rd of February 2026 and end on the 1st of August 2030. This procurement process covers various locations including the UK and several international territories. The total contract value awarded amounts to GBP 58,321.56, and the successful supplier is Budget Cars Ltd, headquartered in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire.

This tender presents valuable opportunities for growth, especially for businesses specialising in transport and logistics, such as taxi services, that are capable of providing competitive pricing and efficient service coverage. Although the suitability criteria did not favour small and medium enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), large-scale operators with established infrastructures in the specified locations would be well-positioned to vie for similar future opportunities. Businesses with the capacity to operate in diverse geographical areas and comply with the procurement regulations of Buckinghamshire Council could gain substantial contract work, thereby expanding their market presence and operational scale.
