## Summary

The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) is seeking to procure training services for inspection staff concerning Hybrid and Electric vehicles through an open tender titled "Hybrid and Electronic Vehicle Training." This contract, valued at £460,000, aims to ensure approximately 1,100 DVSA staff receive a nationally recognised Level 2 qualification on the safe inspection of these vehicles. The tender period closes on 17th September 2020, while the contract will commence on 23rd October 2020 and run until 22nd October 2023. The procurement is classified under training services (CPV code 80500000) and applicable across various delivery locations, including the UK and British Overseas Territories.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in training, particularly those experienced in automotive technology and safety. Firms that focus on upskilling personnel in emerging vehicle technologies, especially around electric and hybrid systems, would be well-suited to compete for this contract. Additionally, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, potentially allowing them to expand their market reach and secure a noteworthy engagement with a prominent government agency.

## Notice

As more and more of the alternative fuel propulsion system is encountered, DVSA need to ensure that all inspection staff, be it roadside or at periodic technical inspection, can deal with both Hybrid and Electric vehicles safely. DVSA inspection staff therefore require training to provide awareness of the systems and the dangers involved inherent with the design of such vehicles. DVSA is looking to procure services from a Supplier to deliver a nationally recognised qualification, Level 2 to all inspection staff (approximately 1100 staff) on the safe inspection of Hybrid and Electric vehicles.
