Description

DVLA requires a contract for the provision of Laboratory Services which will deliver urine drug screening and confirmation services accurately and confidentially to support the decision-making process within Drivers Medical Group (DMG). The Authority requires a contract which will deliver urine drug screening and confirmation services to assist the Authority in determining a drivers medical fitness to hold a driving licence. The successful supplier must be capable of accurately and confidentially carrying out both initial screening and confirmation testing services which will provide national coverage throughout Great Britain. The Contractor/ Supplier will be required to transport samples from Franchise Doctors across Great Britain to the Contractor's/Supplier's nominated laboratory/laboratories for analysis. Monitoring, collating and feeding back trend analysis data would be advantageous, in particular on drugs below cut offs, which when combined, could result in impairment.

Additional information: The purpose of this Prior Information Notice (PIN) is to forewarn interested service providers of this requirement and highlight that we plan to hold a Supplier Day for the purpose of market sounding and to enable DVLA to describe and develop our proposed requirements.

The virtual Supplier Day has been scheduled for the 24th & 25th April 2024 and will be held via MS Teams. Interested service providers must express their interest via e-mail to:-

By 12:00pm on Friday 22nd March 2024 quoting reference PS/23/163 - Provision of Laboratory Services for testing of drugs of abuse/misuse.
