What is being bought

Published requirement description

Framework Agreement for the provision of MOT services for Private Hire and Hackney Carriages. The Council requires Vehicle Testing Stations (VTS) local to and within the Birmingham boundaries to undertake MOT testing and re-tests as specified by the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) and appropriate legislation. In addition, the Vehicle Testing Stations are required to undertake a supplementary Council specific test which ensures licensed vehicles meet the Council’s standards.

In addition, Vehicle Testing Stations (VTS) are asked to provide accident inspections – this may be as many as 500 annually. This requirement covers the following vehicles:

  • Hackney Carriages
  • Private Hire Vehicles
  • Limousines
  • Adapted Vehicles
