## Summary

Birmingham City Council is seeking to establish a Framework Agreement for MOT services for Private Hire and Hackney Carriages, anticipated to commence on 1st July 2021 and run until 30th June 2025. The procurement process is currently in the Award stage following an open procedure. Tenderers must have submitted their proposals via the e-tendering system by the deadline of 22nd March 2021. The services will be required primarily within the Birmingham area, where approximately 5,250 MOT tests are conducted annually, alongside supplementary inspections specific to the Council’s standards.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the vehicle testing and automotive services sector, particularly those located within or around Birmingham. Companies that specialise in MOT testing, technical inspection, and related services will be well-placed to compete, especially since the contract will be awarded to the five highest-scoring tenderers. Local Vehicle Testing Stations capable of meeting both DVSA guidelines and the Council’s additional requirements are encouraged to participate in this procurement process, potentially benefiting from a long-term agreement with a public sector organisation.
