Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for "Motorcycle Protective Gear 2025" was conducted by the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA), located in Bristol, UK. The contract, valued at £740,000, is aimed at supplying protective gear for their motorcycle examiners and supports public safety services. The procedure, initiated as an open tender, went through its tender stage between February and March 2025, with the contract being signed on 16 May 2025, marking the transition to the award stage. The procurement falls under the goods category, specifically protective gear, and was executed under the legal basis of the European Directive 2014/24/EU. This contract, which has a three-year duration with options for renewal, saw the awarding of the contract to Nevis Marketing Limited, a supplier based in Dorset.

This tender provides significant opportunities for business growth, particularly for suppliers in the UK specialising in protective clothing and related services. Companies with the capability to offer a comprehensive range of motorcycle clothing, PPE, and auxiliary services such as repair and recycling could benefit from participating in similar future tenders. SMEs, like the successful supplier Nevis Marketing Limited, that possess an established online ordering system and the capacity to deliver bespoke and environmentally friendly solutions stand to gain competitive advantages in securing government contracts. Such opportunities are essential for businesses aiming to strengthen their foothold in the public sector, particularly within the safety and protective gear market.
