This tender, tagged "CRN/26/15", falls under the industry category of training services (CPV code: 80500000). The procurement is designed to equip staff with effective sifting and interviewing skills using the Success Profiles framework and is customised for DVLA's processes.

The service delivery is expected across the United Kingdom, and the contract is initially set from 1st July 2026 to 30th June 2027, with possible extensions until 2029.

This tender offers an excellent opportunity for training service providers, particularly those adept at creating bespoke training packages aligned with organisational frameworks like Success Profiles.
