## Summary

The Driver & Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) sought contract bids for the provision of Nutanix software support and licences, with a budget of £41,492.35. This procurement process was initiated through a selective tendering method, operating under a framework agreement. The contract period is set to commence on 31 March 2021 and will run until 30 March 2022. The tender closed on 8 March 2021, and it falls under the broader category of software packages and information systems, specifically focusing on IT services.

This contract presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in IT support and software services to expand their offerings. Particularly, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that provide services related to software development, consulting, and system maintenance should consider competing for this tender. Engaging with the DVLA could enhance their portfolio and establish a working relationship with a significant public sector agency, thereby fostering further growth and potential contracts in the future.

## Notice

DVLA is looking to renew its software support and licences for its Nutanix agreement which was purchased as a proof of concept three years ago. Various renewal periods were reviewed, and a 12 month renewal will provide the DVLA with the best balance of contract flexibility and value.
