II.1.4) Short description
DVSA is looking to procure the services of a supplier to deliver Air Brake Training for approximately 550 delegates over the initial contract period for Vehicle Examiners and Post Collision Examiners.
DVSA enforcement Vehicle Examiners are required to conduct examinations of large goods vehicles and public services vehicles. These checks can be part of a roadside inspection, fleet inspection or post collision investigation.
To be able to conduct a full technical inspection the Vehicle Examiners needs to have working knowledge of basic air brake systems as well as more advanced and current technology employed in large vehicle braking systems.
