UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA), a central government public authority, is planning a procurement process for Hosting, Software, and Support Services under the One Government Value Agreement (OGVA). The procurement process is currently in the planning stage, and a future notice is expected by 1st October 2026. The services fall under the IT category, encompassing consulting, software development, internet, and support, with a focus on the UK as the location for service delivery. The planned contract period is set from 1st February 2027 to 31st January 2030, with an anticipated gross value of £7,467,078.22. Interested parties can reach out to the DS&T Category via the DVSA's commercial enquiries email.

This tender creates substantial opportunities for growth, particularly for businesses specialising in IT services. It is well-suited for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), providing a pathway to engage in high-value government contracts. Companies with experience in software development, internet services, and support structures stand a good chance of competing effectively for this contract. With proper capability, these organisations can leverage the opportunity to expand their portfolio and gain government recognition, contributing to long-term business growth. However, it should be noted that this notice is purely pipeline-related without any current guarantee of a resulting tender opportunity, necessitating continued monitoring for updates and additional phases of the procurement process.
