Made Tech: New Contract Win

13th October 2021

Award of Largest Ever Contract

Made Tech Group plc, a leading provider of digital, data and technology services to the UK public sector, is pleased to announce that it has been awarded its largest contract to date, worth approximately £7 million over the next two years, underpinning current revenue growth expectations. The contract has been awarded by the Driver and Vehicle Licencing Agency (DVLA) for the provision of design, development, and application support services.

This follows on from Made Tech’s first contract with the DVLA, headquartered in Swansea, which was awarded in October 2020 at a value of £3 million. This initial contract was awarded alongside another supplier, however the DVLA has chosen to move forward with Made Tech as a single supplier for the work, a strong endorsement of Made Tech’s quality of service and reputation with its customers.

The DVLA has awarded the contract as part of a critical IT Transformation programme that seeks to re-engineer all of the DVLA’s IT systems onto new, open-source, cloud-hosted IT platforms. As part of the contract, Made Tech will work alongside the DVLA’s teams to deliver migration of legacy services to cloud-based environments; develop new internal and external facing services; and create online services and digital channels to improve overall customer service.

Rory McDonald, CEO of Made Tech, commented: “We are delighted to be further expanding our relationship with the DVLA through the award of this extensive contract, which will support our regional expansion and enable further investment into Wales.

“This is a great example of how much our clients value the work we deliver and of how our contracts are repeatable in nature and typically increase in size and scope. The contract award is also testament to the talent of our engineers and the quality of the work they have delivered to the DVLA since being first appointed just a year ago.

“As our largest contract to date, this underpins our existing growth expectations as a publicly listed company.”
