## Summary

The procurement process initiated by Buckinghamshire Council, under the title "Phase 3A - SWFS1402 - 27/11/25 - AWARD," focuses on the provision of taxi services. This particular contract is classified under the industry category of CPV 60120000. The procurement was conducted via a selective, restricted procedure and has now reached the award stage as of 23rd January 2026. The contract period is set to commence on 23rd February 2026 and will conclude on 23rd February 2030. The council utilised its e-Tendering System to facilitate this process, with a location focus primarily within the United Kingdom, extending to British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, and beyond.

This tender provides substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in transportation services, particularly those capable of offering competitive pricing models, such as a price per mile strategy. While the procurement favours established companies, it poses a less favourable landscape for SMEs and VCSEs. The successful supplier, Bucks Minibus Travel t/a Swan Rider, exemplifies the type of business well-suited for such contracts. The value of the award is £89,952.58, providing a significant financial growth opportunity for companies within the transportation sector over the specified four-year contract period.
