## Summary

The public procurement process led by Buckinghamshire Council, operating through their e-Tendering System, focused on the provision of taxi services, classified under CPV code 60120000. This award stage, dated 14 July 2026, follows a selective procurement method described as a restricted procedure. The tender targeted locations including the United Kingdom and various international regions, with the contract period commencing on 13 July 2026 and concluding on 1 December 2030. Key details of the contract, including the award value of £73,451.47, highlight its completion status and the active involvement of R And S Travel Ltd as the designated supplier. The procurement process adhered to a strict timeline, concluding the tender period on 6 July 2026.

This tender presents a robust opportunity for businesses specialising in transport and logistics, particularly those with the capacity to deliver comprehensive taxi services on a large scale. The four-year contract period implies sustained business with Buckinghamshire Council, offering potential growth and stable revenue streams. Given the selective nature of the procurement method, businesses with proven industry experience and the ability to meet specific pricing and service criteria are well-suited for such opportunities. Though this particular tender does not cater to SMEs or VCSEs, it sets a precedent for experienced larger companies to engage in similarly structured future contracts.
