Summary of the contracting process

The recent procurement process led by the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) has successfully advanced to the award stage with the title "L3 Heavy Vehicle Service & Maintenance Technician." This contract, classified under the education and training services category (CPV code 80000000), spans several locations, including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom. With a completion status, the contract was awarded on 7th October 2025, following a tender end date of 3rd October 2025. The procurement was carried out through a selective method, specifically a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, with a contract period starting from 13th October 2025 to 12th October 2028. The total value of the contract is £680,000 GBP, and it is well-suited for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in education and technical training for vehicle maintenance, especially those that can provide services across multiple regions as specified. SMEs, particularly those not classified as voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSE), stand to gain from such an arrangement due to the alignment of the procurement strategy with smaller business capabilities. Companies like GTG Training LTD, the awarded supplier, highlight the viability for SMEs to secure contracts in this sector, thus fostering business growth and potential expansion in the international market for vehicle service training.
