Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, managed by Buckinghamshire Council, sought services under the industry category of taxi services. The initiative, titled "Phase 3A - SALF1413 - 27/11/25 - AWARD," has successfully reached the award stage. This tender utilised a restricted procedure, allowing the council to selectively procure a supplier for the specified services. The contract will commence on 23 February 2026, running until 23 February 2030, covering various locations including British Overseas Territories and Channel Islands, with a notable headquarters in Aylesbury, United Kingdom. The procurement arrangement concluded with a total contract value of £111,945.42, awarded to Neales Taxis Limited as the supplier.

This tender presents business growth opportunities particularly for taxi service providers capable of fulfilling transport requirements across diverse geographic zones. The successful supplier, Neales Taxis Limited, illustrates the potential for specialist businesses in the transportation service industry to gain long-term contracts through competitive bidding, especially when adept at operating within the outlined restrictions of procurement. Organisations within the service sector but outside the SME and VCSE domains are well-suited for similar opportunities offered through selective procurement processes, highlighting the prospects for established entities to compete effectively in this space.
