Opportunity overview
The contract assigns the winning bidder as the Official Publisher of DVSA’s commercial publishing products including apps, e-learning, books/e-books. We are allowed to do this under a Delegation of Authority to manage Crown copyright assets from the Keeper of the Public Record at The National Archives. 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. The contract value is based on the total income generated over the maximum 7 years.
