Summary of the contracting process

Buckinghamshire Council has completed the procurement process titled "SPRI1501 - 14/01/26 - AWARD," which falls under the taxi services category, classified with CPV code 60120000. The process was a selective procurement, employing a restricted procedure, with the tendering phase concluding on 16th January 2026. The subsequent contract, awarded to Neales Taxis Limited, commenced on 19th January 2026 and is set to run through to 13th April 2030. This tender seeks services spread across diverse regions, including the United Kingdom and other international destinations, overseen by the main address in Aylesbury, HP19 8FF.

This awarded contract presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in transportation services, particularly those capable of operating in multiple regions. Firms with established experience in taxi services might find opportunities for growth by delivering high-quality service over the contract's extensive duration. While the procurement process is selective, it did not target SME or VCSE sectors specifically, indicating that larger organisations with substantial resources are well-suited to meet the requirements set forth by Buckinghamshire Council. By successfully fulfilling this contract, businesses can enhance their portfolios and expand their market reach.
