What the notice says

City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council is undertaking Preliminary Market Engagement to understand the market for vehicle data and vehicle history checking services to support its statutory licensing and regulatory functions. The Council is seeking information from suppliers capable of providing vehicle provenance checks, outstanding finance checks, stolen vehicle checks, insurance write-off checks, VIN verification, mileage verification and ownership history information. The engagement will help inform future procurement options, delivery models and route-to-market decisions. This is not a call for competition, tender opportunity or invitation to quote.

How to bid

  1. Read the full notice on Find a Tender, including any tender documents it links to.
  2. Register your organisation on the Central Digital Platform (through Find a Tender) if you have not already. Suppliers need to be registered to take part in procurements under the Procurement Act 2023.
  3. Follow the submission instructions in the notice; it does not name an e-tendering portal.
