02/ The brief
What the notice says
Not fully read: this is the notice text; attached documents are not read.
The contract covers DVSA’s statutory duty to Publish the Official Highway Code in print, as well as commercial publications. These are the definitive guides that support industry and the general road-using public in meeting and maintaining DVSA’s standards.
The contract will support the Department for Infrastructure in Northern Ireland and – new to this retender – the Department for Transport publications stemming from Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions. This brings all the source materials for UK driving theory under one contract.
The parties will work together to innovate new products to inform, educate and advise, promoting positive behaviour change and compliance that goes beyond the Highway Code and drivers and riders. We aim also to reach MOT testers, dangerous goods drivers and managers, commercial operators and employers of drivers to realise commitments in the DVSA Vision to 2030 and create new income streams.
This is a concession contract. In the total value section, this shows the estimated value of the opportunity for publishing services.
