Summary of the contracting process

The Buckinghamshire Council has concluded a procurement process for taxi services under the titled tender "MMHS1201 - AWARD". This was conducted using a selective procurement method described as a restricted procedure. The contract, with a value of £79,269.66, was awarded to Neales Taxis Limited. The service covers various locations including the United Kingdom and international destinations. The tender period ended on 29th December 2025, and the contract's active period is scheduled from 1st January 2026 to 1st August 2030. This procurement process reflects the Council's need for reliable transport services across a wide range of geographic locations, with the procurement status now marked as complete.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for taxi service providers, especially for those capable of operating on an international scale. Businesses with the capability to offer competitive per-mile pricing and ensure high service standards across the specified geographical regions would have been well-suited for this contract. As the procurement method was selective, it implies the necessity for businesses to meet certain pre-qualified criteria leading up to the bidding, ensuring that only capable and reliable suppliers were considered. Such contracts with comprehensive geographical scope can aid in expanding service reach and strengthening market position in the transport services sector.
