Cabonline wins Stockholm mobility service procurement
The decision by Stockholm County Council to award mobility service contracts for the period 2019-2022 to TaxiKurir and Sverigetaxi has been confirmed, as the appeals period has now expired.
In the evaluation by the council’s Public Transport Administration, the tender submitted by Cabonline subsidiaries TaxiKurir and Sverigetaxi was by far the highest ranked in terms of quality among all tenders for the contract. This, combined with competitive pricing, saw the two companies jointly awarded 100% of mobility service traffic in 24 of the 33 procurement areas, with 90% in the remaining nine areas. This means that Cabonline was successful in winning approximately 96% of total traffic volume, covering some 10,000 mobility service journeys each day in Stockholm County.
“This is extremely pleasing news for us,” says Cabonline’s CEO Peter Viinapuu, “given that mobility services in Stockholm constitute one of our largest and most important assignments. The county council’s decision demonstrates continued trust and is a recognition of the quality that Cabonline is able to deliver. We are the leading taxi company in the Nordics and we will do everything in our power to repay this trust by continuing to invest in training, improved terms and more efficient technical platforms.”
The county council estimates the total annual value of the contract at approximately SEK 800 million. The new contract enters into force on 1 April 2019 and runs until 31 March 2022, with the option to extend for a further year.
