Overview
Department for Transport (DfT) is a ministerial department. We work with our agencies and partners to support the transport network that helps the United Kingdom's businesses and keeps people and goods travelling around the country.
We plan and invest in transport infrastructure to keep the UK on the move. DfT is considering a procurement under Lot 1 of the Government Commercial Agency’s Digital Outcomes and Specialists 7 (RM1043.9) framework agreement for a Supplier to deliver a Discovery.
The Supplier would deliver an agile Discovery to develop an evidence-based understanding of the problems affecting the existing Taxi and Private Hire Vehicle Licensing Service. This would include examining current information-sharing arrangements, user needs, constraints and potential options for improvement.
