Summary of the contracting process

The awarded contract titled "Phase 3A - SALF1406 - 27/11/25 - AWARD" is led by Buckinghamshire Council through its e-Tendering System. This procurement process pertains to the taxi services industry, classified under CPV code 60120000. The locality for service delivery spans across various regions, including the United Kingdom, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, and European areas, showing a broad geographical reach. The tender, which followed a selective procurement method known as a "restricted procedure", has advanced beyond the award stage as of 17 April 2026. The contract begins on 23 February 2026 and runs until 23 February 2030, with a notable award sum of £66,327.53 to Neales Taxis Limited, the supplier selected for this active contract. Key tender dates include the period ending 11 December 2025.

This awarded contract programme offers substantial opportunities for companies specialising in taxi services, especially those with capabilities to operate across multiple regions. Businesses who can deliver competitive pricing strategies, particularly with the requirement for bids including a price per mile, could find substantial growth potential. Although this particular process was marked unsuitable for SMEs and VCSEs, the scale of the contract suggests opportunities for larger enterprises with robust logistic networks and established presence. Strategic partnerships or expansions into public sector contracts in transportation can significantly enhance business portfolios.
