Summary of the contracting process

Buckinghamshire Council, operating through its e-Tendering System, has concluded a procurement process titled "SPHO1501 - AWARD" in the industry category of Taxi services, as identified by CPV code 60120000. The procurement utilised a selective procurement method under a Restricted procedure, reaching its completion stage on 5th June 2025. While the tendering period concluded on 4th June 2025, the contract is set to commence on 11th June 2025, extending until 1st December 2030. Although the main procurement category is services, the opportunity was found unsuitable for SMEs and VCSEs. The services were to be delivered across diverse regions, including parts of the UK and beyond, such as the British Overseas Territories and the Channel Islands.

This award represents a significant long-term growth opportunity, especially for businesses in the transport and logistics sector. MG Transport Services, the contract awardees, exemplify firms equipped to fulfil such requirements, possessing the capacity to deliver competitive pricing per mile as specified. Businesses that specialise in offering reliable, expansive taxi services and those that can manage complex logistics across multiple regions would find similar tenders beneficial for scaling operations. The substantial contract period also allows new entrants to diversify and firmly establish a position within the public sector transport services market.
