Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Summer Operations Week 2 - MSWR710" under the category of taxi services has been completed. It was conducted by Buckinghamshire Council - e-Tendering System, based in Aylesbury, United Kingdom. The process followed a restricted procedure, indicating a selective procurement method. The contract, valued at £346,040.92, was awarded to Neales Taxis Limited on 14th August 2025, and runs from 1st September 2025 to 1st August 2031. The tender involved delivering services across multiple regions, including the British Overseas Territories and the United Kingdom. Key industry classifications include taxi services and buses and coaches. Note that the tender process included a specific requirement for transport operators to submit a price per mile in their bids, with all clarifications processed through the In-tend portal.

This tender provides substantial growth opportunities for businesses in the transportation sector, particularly those specialising in taxi operations and large vehicle fleets. The long contract period implies a stable revenue stream for successful bidders. Although SMEs and VCSEs were not the primary focus of this tender, companies that meet the stringent requirements of a restricted process and can deliver cost-efficient and reliable services across the specified locations are well-suited to compete. Engaging with this type of procurement process could position a business favourably for additional public sector contracts in the future.
