Please note. This notice extends the submission date for notice 2024/S 000-038573.
The Driver and Vehicle Licencing Agency (DVLA) invites tenders for the provision of enforcement services across the UK, including Northern Ireland.
This service will help identify untaxed vehicles or vehicles that are in breach of Statutory off Road Notification (SORN) and, where necessary, immobilise or remove vehicles. The services required encompass:
- Immobilisation, Removal, Storage and Disposal of vehicles
- Enforcement Warning Notice Issuing Services and;
- Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) services for detection and action against untaxed non-Compliant vehicles
This service provision is to supplement other DVLA Enforcement actions undertaken and help DVLA to continue to improve on the high compliance rate of Vehicle Excise Duty collection. This provision will provide quick, robust and proportionate action against those who don’t comply.
The services for all elements must be considered when submitting your proposals, although subcontracting and consortia-bidding is acceptable. All products and services procured by or on behalf of the Authority must comply with the Government Buying Standards (GBS) and the Supplier must be able to meet and evidence compliance with the relevant GBS.
The Annual Enforcement Targets for the first Contract Year are forecast to be:
-118,500 Clean Enforcement Actions to include up to 2,500 Motorcycles and 125 Heavy Goods Vehicles.
- 62,000 Enforcement Warning Notices.
- The required volume of ANPR Actionable Images from the supplier fleet is a minimum of 14,000 per month, which correctly identify an unlicenced vehicle on the road. As a guideline, to deliver this volume of Actionable Images the total number of ANPR reads would need to be in the region of 4,000,000 per month.
It is anticipated that the Authority will provide a minimum of a further 5,000 Actionable Images from their own fleet of vehicles into the suppliers Back Office function each month.
Please be aware that forecasted targets are non-binding and for indicative purposes only. Suppliers must have the ability to scale up and down to meet DVLA business needs.
