Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) is seeking a supplier for the decommissioning of testing equipment within its estate as GVTS sites are reduced and some functions move to private Vehicle Examination Facilities; the work covers safe decommissioning, covering pits and recesses, removal, and where required the relocation and recommissioning of equipment across DVSA sites. Equipment to be decommissioned includes, but is not limited to, roller brake testers (light, heavy and motorcycle), headlight testers, speedrollers, 4‑post lifts, motorcycle lifts, pit jacks, air compressors, load simulators, wheel play detectors, exhaust extraction units, emission testers and cabin pressurisation units. Locations and timings for site closures are not currently disclosed due to the complexity of how sites will be closed, and full specification documents set out how each item should be decommissioned and options for resale or transfer.
