Summary of the contracting process

The Driver & Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) is currently engaged in the award stage of a public procurement process for "Payment Gateway Services," which falls under the financial and insurance services category. The contract, valued at £2,000,000, was awarded on 10th July 2020, and the delivery address is located in Swansea, Wales. The contract period commenced on 1st May 2020 and will run until 30th April 2022. This procurement was conducted through a Single Tender Action, indicating that there was no competitive tendering due to the nature of the services required.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in payment processing solutions, particularly those with capabilities to manage high transaction volumes typical of the DVLA's operations. Companies that could successfully engage in this space include large-scale payment service providers and technology firms that can ensure security and efficiency in online transactions, especially during peak periods in March/April and September/October for vehicle relicensing. With an existing contract already established, competitive businesses should focus on innovative solutions or niche services that can add value to DVLA's needs.
