The 'accelerated' procedure is in reference to the required delivery time scales. The Authority used an accelerated timetable under section 74-76 'LTR' for this procurement to increase at pace the quantity of HGV drivers to meet the increased demand of service pressures within supply chains caused by a variety of reasons including consequences from Covid-19 pandemic. Using the accelerated timetable for this procurement, enabled the Authority to award contracts to potential Contractors and commence respective training programmes, advertising training packages to general public and to start onboarding by December 2021 to tackle the sector challenges."
