## Summary

Transport for London commissioned tax consultancy services covering a comprehensive review of its tax arrangements, governance processes and group structure. The work also includes ongoing specialist tax advice on corporation tax, VAT, stamp duty land tax, transfer pricing and related compliance matters. Delivery is associated with City Hall in London. This is a focused financial and governance advisory requirement, combining a review of the organisation’s existing arrangements with continuing technical tax support.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to S&W Partners LLP on 1 September 2026. The award value is £89,845. The contract period runs from 7 September 2026 to 7 June 2027. The procurement used a selective route as a call-off from a framework agreement. The requirement was treated as a services contract and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The published information does not describe separate lots or a scored evaluation basis.

For firms competing when Transport for London next buys this requirement, the work indicates demand for a joined-up tax and governance advisory capability: reviewing tax arrangements, governance processes and group structure, then providing practical ongoing support across corporation tax, VAT, stamp duty land tax, transfer pricing and compliance. Credible suppliers will need specialist expertise spanning these areas and the capacity to combine a substantial review with responsive advice during the engagement. The route used was a framework call-off, so relevant framework appointment and experience delivering public-sector tax advisory work would be commercially important. The procurement was marked suitable for SMEs, indicating that smaller specialist firms may be well placed to compete, either independently or as part of a team.
