## Summary

The procurement process initiated by Buckinghamshire Council, detailed under the title "Phase 3A - SCHI 2401 - 01/12/25 - AWARD", falls within the taxi services industry category. The process, which has reached the award stage, involves the selective procurement method known as the restricted procedure. Although the tender period concluded on 15th December 2025, the awarded contract commenced on 23rd February 2026 and is set to run until 23rd February 2030. The contract encompasses services across various regions, including the United Kingdom, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, and Europe, with a significant contract value of £142,169.54 awarded to Premium Minibuses & Cars Ltd.

This procurement opportunity presents a substantial prospect for transport operators specialising in taxi services, encouraging business growth by facilitating long-term engagements spanning four years.
