Summary of the contracting process

The Driver & Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) in Wales is conducting a procurement process titled "Provision of VED Campaign Evaluation." This process falls under the research and development services category and is at the Award stage. The tender period concluded on 20 November 2019, with the awarded contract value set at £34,750, aimed at evaluating a communications campaign targeting Vehicle Excise Duty (VED). The contract commenced on 27 November 2019 and is scheduled to end on 26 November 2020, with expectations for reports to be delivered within four weeks after campaign completion.

This tender presents valuable growth opportunities for research and consultancy firms, particularly those with expertise in campaign evaluations and public awareness studies.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Provision of VED Campaign Evaluation

Notice Description

DVLA is preparing a professional assurance case to run a communications campaign targeting Vehicle Excise Duty (VED) * To track awareness and behaviours of the target audience before and after the campaign activity. We want the sample to match the demographics of our target audience and the tracking to be done in the 20 geographical regions the campaign is targeting. * Delivery of a comprehensive report for each burst of research and a final post campaign report. The expectation is for the final and full report to be delivered within 4 weeks of the end of the campaign. We have a baseline from previous campaign activity and would require that the next round of tracking and evaluation builds on this to allow comparisons. Additional insight for future campaigns may be required in years 2 and/or 3; in the event that this is required DVLA would hope to cover the cost via variation although internal variation limits apply.
