Vehicle Components Testing Framework

Descriptions

This is a Preliminary Market Engagement Exercise - this not a tendering opportunity or a call for competition.

DVSA is seeking information from potential suppliers to help shape our approach to re-procuring our Vehicle Components Testing Services Framework.

Our goal is to enhance our framework by gaining insights into market capabilities and interest. This will inform the development of a robust and competitive tender specification.

DVSA's Vehicle and Component Testing Services Framework is due to expire on 8 September 2026. This opportunity is to replace the current framework.

The framework will be open to include a number of suppliers who pass the criteria set out in the tender pack.

DVSA will use the framework to issue call-off competitions to the appointed suppliers who can then bid in line with the process set out in Call-Off award procedure.

The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) is the Market Surveillance Authority for automotive products in Great Britain. It ensures that vehicles and automotive products placed on the market are monitored and have been designed and manufactured in accordance with type approval requirements.

Over the next three years, DVSA is planning to undertake a programme of market surveillance testing; checking the emissions performances of vehicles, as well as other type-approval testing, on a wide range of vehicles and vehicle components.

Please note this is a draft outline of the requirement and will be subject to amendment prior to any potential procurement exercise.
