The intended contract will be expected to start mid 2024. The initial contract period will be five (5) years. The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) currently has separate contracts for card payment processing, merchant acquiring, and direct debit collections. This creates a fragmented and inefficient system, with different vendors, systems, and processes, leading to potential higher costs, increased complexity, and lower performance. To address these challenges and improve its payment operations, the DVSA aims to combine its current contracts into one integrated contract that covers all payment processing, merchant acquiring, and direct debit collections services. The goal is to streamline processes, reduce costs, improve service quality, and enhance cus-tomer experience. However, this task requires careful planning, coordination, and execution, as well as effective communication with stakeholders and vendors. The purpose of the PIN and RFI is to inform the market of the requirement and gather information and feedback from the market to help develop the specification in preparation for launching the 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 Payment Services RFI document for further detail. Please respond to the questions in the Payment Services RFI document and submit your responses via DfT’s eSourcing Portal, Jaggaer, by 12:00hrs on 8th January 2024. This will appear as a Pre Qualification Questionnaire (PQQ). If you have any questions, raise them via DfT’s eSourcing Portal, Jaggaer, by 17:00hrs on 29th December 2023.
