Description

The Driver & Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) is looking to procure the services of a supplier(s) to deliver IRTEC Assessments for approximately 370 Vehicle Standard Assessors over an initial 3-year contract period.

The Vehicle Standard Assessors require the IRTEC assessment for Large Commercial Vehicle Inspection Technician.

The purpose of the Prior Invitation Notice (PIN) and Request for Information (RFI) is to inform the market of the requirement and gather information and feedback from the market via a Supplier Questionnaire in advance of publishing a future tender.

Following receipt of the information from suppliers in response to the RFI, DVSA intend to finalise the tender documentation and publish a tender via Find a Tender and Contracts Finder.

Please read the Specification section within the PIN document.

Respond to the questions in the Supplier Questionnaire section within the PIN document and submit your responses via DfT's eSourcing Portal, Jaggaer, by 16:00hrs on 21 October 2022. This will appear as a Pre-Qualification Questionnaire (PQQ).

If you have any questions, raise them via DfT's eSourcing Portal, Jaggaer, by 16:00hrs on 21 October 2022.
