Summary of the contracting process

The Driver & Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) has completed a public procurement process for "DVSA Technical Support Services". This tender falls under the information technology services category and was based in Nottingham, United Kingdom. The procurement method employed was a limited award procedure, which did not involve prior publication of a call for competition. The contract was signed on 1st July 2021 and is notable for being valued at £5,056,152. The procurement process was initiated to ensure the continuation of existing technical support services while a longer-term solution is being developed, with the project expected to launch in July 2021.

This procurement opportunity presents significant prospects for businesses specialising in IT services, particularly those experienced in cloud-hosted solutions and technical support. Companies with capabilities to provide continual support and maintain service quality would be well-positioned to compete for future contracts stemming from DVSA's efforts. Given the complexity inherent in such services, businesses that have previously engaged in similar projects or possess unique expertise in this area may gain a competitive edge in the upcoming tendering processes.
