Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process overseen by the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) involves the implementation of an Electronic Records Management system for approved driving instructors. This project, categorised under Records Management within the services sector, is crucial for the digitisation of driver trainer records. The contracting phase is complete with the contract awarded to Iron Mountain (UK) plc, a large-scale supplier. The procurement employed a selective method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement, and the contract spans from 21st May 2024 to 2nd March 2027. It encompasses delivery across diverse geographical locations, including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, the Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom. The tender process concluded on 12th February 2024, and the contract was officially awarded on 21st May 2024.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in digital records management and IT services within the public sector. Companies with the capability to provide robust and secure electronic document management systems can leverage such contracts to expand their portfolio and enhance their market position. While the contract in this instance was not targeted towards SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs), large-scale enterprises with established infrastructure in scanning, uploading, and storing electronic records would find such tenders particularly aligned with their service offerings. By participating in similar procurement processes, businesses can potentially increase their visibility and reputation within the public services domain.
