## Summary

The Driver & Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) has completed a procurement process for the provision of Software Engineering Services, valued at £3,000,000. This initiative aims to support the DVLA's Digital Transformation Programme, focusing on re-architecting IT systems to modern, cloud-hosted platforms.

The contract period runs from 9th November 2020 to 8th November 2021, with the tender period having ended on 4th June 2020. Delivery is expected to occur in Wales, United Kingdom.
