Provision of Asset Condition Verification Services

Description

DVLA requires continued independent technical assurance to support completion of the ongoing Asset Verification exercise under the DVLA Hard Services Contract. Arcadis currently provides this assurance, including review and validation of asset verification findings, supporting evidence, remedial actions and associated contractual liability. The exercise has not concluded within the term of the current contract and further provision is therefore required to continue the existing assurance activity through to completion without introducing a change in technical approach during the live verification process.
