## Summary

The recent procurement process titled "Evidence collection to support a consultation on old tyres" was conducted by The Department for Transport, focusing on research and development services within the transport industry. The contract, valued at £29,671, was awarded following a selective procurement method as a call-off from a framework agreement. The procurement stage is complete, with the award made on 2 July 2019, and the contract period running from 3 July 2019 to 30 August 2019. The project aimed to gather data on tyre age distribution for various vehicles, specifically heavy goods vehicles, buses, and taxis, in the South East region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses involved in research, consultancy, and data collection services, particularly those with expertise in transport and automotive sectors. Companies that specialise in statistical analysis, environmental research, or regulatory consultancy may find this contract aligns with their capabilities, especially those equipped to provide insights and support for potential legislative impacts stemming from public consultation outcomes. Engaging in such projects can significantly bolster an organisation's portfolio and reputation within the public sector.

## Notice

The aim of the project is to obtain data from a sample of vehicles to understand the age distribution of re-tread and first life tyres fitted to HGVs, buses, coaches, minibuses, taxis and private hire vehicles. We will use this data to inform the Government's response to public consultation on the use of older tyres, this response will be published in the autumn and may result in a legislative change. Data from this work will be used to quantify costs and benefits in the impact assessment that will accompany any new legislation.
