Services are required at DVSA sites across the UK. The volume of services is expected to decrease, with the removal of assets, during the life of the contract.
Procurement Information
DVSA have used the negotiated without prior publication route to market. This is justified based on competition being absent due to technical reasons (reg 32.2.b.ii). The technical reasons for the justification are as follows: - The technical knowledge to calibrate and effect repairs of the aging (0-20yr) testing equipment is limited to the service provider. - The requirement is further technically limited by the bespoke nature of some of the equipment to the specific needs of DVSA. - The requirements are time limited due to the removal of assets over the next 2-4years with no budget for new test lanes, equipment or associated training.
