DVLA will be conducting a retender process in early 2024 to select a supplier(s) to provide

  • Vehicle Immobilisation,
  • Removal,
  • Storage,
  • Disposal,
  • Enforcement Notice Issuing Services and;
  • Provision of Automatic Number Plate Recognition Services.

DVLA is tendering for two potentially separate provisions.

The first is a service for Immobilisation, Removal, Storage, and Disposal of vehicles and Enforcement Notice Issuing.

The second is a service for non-compliant vehicle detection and reporting via ANPR technology.

Both services are required for a sustainable UK wide geographical coverage and to manage significant volumes of transactions for the DVLA.

The current volume of actions per year are as follows:

  • 118,500 immobilisation actions;
  • 62,000 warning notices;
  • 144,000 ANPR actionable images

Suppliers must have the ability to scale up and down to meet DVLA business needs.

DVLA would like to hold a Market Engagement event on 14th December 2023, which will explain the requirement further and explore new/innovative solutions for immobilisation, ANPR provision and all associated administrative services with interested parties.

The Market Engagement Day will be held at DVLA’s Innovation facility and will be a purely in person event. DVLA’s Innovation facility is located at:

Richard Ley Development Centre

Upper Fforest Way

Swansea Vale

Llansamlet

Swansea

SA7 0AN
