UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) bought an overall programme to support its executive team. This is a business support services requirement, covering miscellaneous business-related services. The work is delivered for DVLA across the United Kingdom, with the buying organisation based in Swansea. The requirement was arranged as a single service lot and concerns support for the agency’s board-level and executive activity. It is relevant to consultancies and business support providers that design and deliver structured programmes for senior leadership teams in a central government or similarly complex public-sector environment. The requirement is focused on executive and board support rather than a specified goods supply, construction project or technical delivery service.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Elevate BC Ltd. DVLA used a below-threshold direct award without competition. The contract was signed and awarded on 3 June 2026, with an initial contract period from 3 June 2026 to 31 May 2027. Its value is £39,150 excluding VAT and £42,180 including VAT. The contract can be renewed through an 18-month extension if required, giving a maximum end date of 30 November 2028. Elevate BC Ltd is the sole awarded supplier for the completed lot. The published outcome records an active award and active contract. The requirement was assessed as a services procurement, with no competitive evaluation or bid process recorded because the contract was awarded directly without competition.

This procurement indicates demand from DVLA for an external programme supporting its executive team and board requirements. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement of this kind would be able to provide a coherent, end-to-end programme rather than isolated advisory tasks. Relevant experience would include working with senior leadership, supporting board-level activity and delivering business-related services for a public authority. Credibility is likely to depend on demonstrating a clear delivery approach, dependable programme management and the ability to work with an executive team in a structured government setting. Organisations competing in this area should be prepared to evidence comparable senior-level support work and the capacity to deliver consistently across the United Kingdom.
