This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in vehicle inspection and compliance testing, particularly those that are independent and unconnected with the hackney carriage or private hire trades.

The Provider on behalf of DBC will be required to carry out approximately 500 to 600 annual compliance vehicle checks, in accordance with the MOT test conditions laid down by the Vehicle & Operators Services Agency (VOSA).
