Summary of the contracting process

Buckinghamshire Council, operating through its e-Tendering System, has completed the procurement process for taxi services under the contract titled "Phase 3B - SHHS3408 - 08/12/25 - AWARD." The procurement was conducted using a restricted procedure, with the award being published on 20 April 2026. The contract period commences on 23 February 2026 and extends to 23 February 2030, focusing on services within the industry category identified by the CPV code 60120000. Locations covered include the United Kingdom and various territories, ensuring broad service provision. The procurement process was initiated through a tender, with Premium Minibuses & Cars Ltd selected as the supplier, highlighting an active engagement in the taxi services sector. Businesses must note the original tender period deadline which was 22 December 2025.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in taxi services, particularly those capable of delivering consistent and efficient transport solutions across diverse regions. Given the selective nature of the procurement method and the scale of operations envisaged, larger established companies in the transport sector would be well-suited to compete and expand their footprint. Collaboration or partnership models with smaller entities might provide additional advantages, aligning with the strategic aims of Buckinghamshire Council in enhancing service delivery across multiple locales within the stipulated contract timeframe.
