## Summary

The procurement process conducted by Buckinghamshire Council has reached the award stage, with the contract being awarded for taxi services, classified under CPV code 60120000. The contract title is "Phase 3B - SSTD1433 - 10/12/25 - AWARD" and involves transportation services within the UK and various other global territories. The tender was executed using a selective procurement method through a restricted procedure, with a closing date for the tender on 23rd December 2025. The contract period is set from 23rd February 2026 to 23rd February 2030, providing a substantial duration for the successful bidder to deliver services to the council.

This award presents significant opportunities for companies in the transportation sector, particularly those specialising in taxi or minibus services. Although the contract is not specifically targeted towards small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), larger operators with competitive pricing per mile stand a good chance of securing contracts in similar future tenders. The contract, valued at £74,538.84, has been awarded to Bucks Minibus Travel t/a Swan Rider, indicating that businesses capable of delivering extensive transport networks across the specified regions could benefit from such opportunities. Businesses seeking to expand their reach within the UK and further afield should take heed of future announcements via e-tendering systems like those operated by Buckinghamshire Council.
