What is being bought

Published requirement description

The DVSA have appointed a single supplier for the provision of services relating to the collection and selling of redundant DVSA testing equipment.

Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) will require the continuation of service in reducing the volume of its Goods Vehicle Testing Station (GVTS) Estate and Facilities. This initiative, in conjunction with introducing Vehicle Examination Facilities (VEF’s) to private premises will assist DVSA to meet its primary objective of bringing Individual Vehicle Approval (IVA) testing closer to Vehicle Operators and Vehicle Maintainers.

As a result of this initiative DVSA testing equipment will become redundant and require disposal following work already undertaken to decommission the equipment in a professional manner to allow for the equipment to be used professionally once it has been re-purchased. All of the equipment to be disposed of would have been installed in DVSA GVTS and Enforcement sites network throughout Great Britain.
