Summary of the contracting process

East Dunbartonshire Council initiated a tender process for taxi services under the title "East Dunbartonshire Transport" with the industry category listed as a service. The procurement method was an open procedure aimed at sourcing transport services for East Dunbartonshire Council and surrounding areas in the UKM81 region. However, the procurement stage is now at the award phase, and the contract status has been cancelled due to the unsuccessful outcome detailed on 1st April 2025.

While this particular tender has been discontinued, it initially presented an opportunity for businesses in the transport sector, particularly those specialising in taxi services, to compete for regional contracts within East Dunbartonshire. Businesses equipped with competitive pricing could have benefited from this tender, which targeted service delivery within a local authority framework. Opportunities such as this typically favour regional transport providers who can offer reliable and efficient services to meet local government criteria. Future tenders from East Dunbartonshire Council could present similar prospects for market growth and collaboration with local authorities.
