Summary of the contracting process

The recent procurement process conducted by Buckinghamshire Council, specifically managed via their e-Tendering System, involves an award for taxi services under the project titled "XBOC3702 - AWARD". This selective procurement was executed through a restricted procedure, signifying a more controlled invitation to tender. With the procurement status now marked as complete, the award was finalised on 27th May 2025, with the contract officially starting on 2nd June 2025 and running until 29th May 2026. The location of interest covers the United Kingdom, alongside several overseas territories, indicative of potential operational scope. The procurement aligns with the CPV code 60120000, which confirms its position within the taxi services sector.

This tender presents notable growth opportunities for businesses operating within the taxi service industry, particularly those with the capacity to function within the specified geographic locations. Despite not being marked for SME or VCSE suitability, businesses with established operations and experience in selective and restricted procurement processes are well-positioned to compete, evident from the successful award to TWK Ltd, a local supplier in Aylesbury. Engaging in this contract introduces significant potential for expanding business operations across not only the UK but also into broader territories, substantiating further market visibility and revenue generation capacity.
