Summary of the contracting process

The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA), headquartered in Bristol, England, has completed a procurement process for Carbon Literacy Training services, classified under CPV code 80500000. The project, valued at £26,150, involves extensive delivery across regions, including the British Overseas Territories and the UK, with the tender period having ended on 31 March 2025. The procurement process, conducted through a limited competitive quotation method, concluded with the award on 27 March 2025, and the contract is set to run from 1 April 2025 until 31 October 2026.

This contract presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in training services, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Although the award has been granted to Sustainability Centric, a large-scale supplier, the nature of the competitive quotation process opens potential avenues for SMEs in similar future tenders. Businesses with robust capabilities in delivering training across diverse geographic locations would be particularly well-suited to participate in such procurement opportunities, focusing on environmental education and literacy in line with current global trends.
