Buckinghamshire Council, using its e-Tendering System, has recently completed a tender process under the title "SLWS1401 - 23/10/2025 - AWARD" in the taxi services industry category, with a classification code of 60120000. The procurement covers taxi services to be delivered across various regions, including the United Kingdom and other international locations. The procurement method was selective, specifically a restricted procedure. The award was made on 28th October 2025, and the contract period will span from 3rd November 2025 to 13th April 2030. With a contract value of £31,398.94, "The Taxi People Ltd" was awarded the contract, and the details were published on 26th November 2025.

This tender represents a considerable opportunity for businesses specialising in transport services to expand their market presence and secure long-term engagements with government entities. The contract's extensive geographic coverage allows companies adept in managing widespread logistical operations to leverage their expertise. Although the process was selective, indicating heightened eligibility requirements, businesses with a robust portfolio in similar service provisions and compliance experience with restricted procedures stand a competitive advantage. Engaging in such contracts can elevate a company's profile and pave the way for subsequent opportunities in public procurement.
