SPSV Driver Licensing

Project title: SPSV Driver Licensing

Organisation: National Transport Authority

Sector: Non-Commercial State Agency

Amount awarded: €40,000

The National Transport Authority (NTA) aims to design and build a new Small Public Service Vehicles (SPSV) Driver Licensing system that will allow them to automate the application process, reduce the administrative burden and improve service delivery. Applicants will be able to apply online, securely entering their personal information and making payment as part of the application. Automated checks will ensure tax clearance, driving licence validity and potentially convictions, via web services to Revenue, NDLS and the Courts Service. The NTA will complete all administrative and documentation before processing each application for vetting to An Garda Síochána. Funding will be used to design the technical framework process prior to the implementation of a custom-made software solution.

Intended outcomes:

1. Complete a benchmarking and evidence base evaluation approach for the design of the technical framework.

2. Complete the system requirement draft and validate the technical specification and structure for custom-made software solution.

3. Commence the assignment of resources for the design and implementation of a new software solution.
