Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are especially encouraged to compete. The involvement in this contract could not only enhance the chosen supplier’s portfolio but also provide steady revenue through the extensive term of the contract. Businesses with expertise in handling large-scale, national-level projects and a proven track record in similar services will find this an excellent opportunity to expand their reach and reputation.

## Notice

DVLA invites tenders for the provision of personalised registration auction services on a national (UK wide) basis. The services that shall be provided by the successful Supplier are: 1. Timed Online Auctions and Ancillary Services; 2. DVLA auction marketing and Associated Promotional Activity; and 3. Hosting, design, content and functionality of bilingual (English & Welsh) website www.dvlaauction.co.uk The Contract will be for an initial term of 3 years and 6 months (see the Procurement Timetable in the Invitation to Tender for detail) which shall be comprised of: - a period of 6 months, or such other period as the Buyer deems necessary, from the Effective Date for the delivery of an Implementation Plan (termed the "Transition & Implementation Period"), followed by - the period commencing from the end of the Transition & Implementation Period until the expiry of the initial term and any extensions granted by the Buyer. The Buyer reserves the right to offer two separate extensions of 12 months each, to provide for a maximum of two further years. The maximum Contract duration (including optional extensions) will therefore be 5 years and 6 months (i.e. 3.5 +1 +1 years). During the Transition & Implementation Period the successful Tenderer shall take all reasonable steps to effect any necessary transition from incumbent Supplier to new Supplier in accordance with the Implementation Plan, in order to ensure the smooth continuation of service to customers. No Timed Online Auctions (and therefore no revenue generation) will take place under this Contract during the Transition and Implementation Period.
