The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA) has unveiled an ambitious plan to significantly boost its revenue by 2028, anchored on digitalisation and a commitment to eliminate corruption.
At a stakeholder engagement with Margins ID Systems Applications Limited, a subsidiary of Margins ID Group, DVLA Board Chairman George Spencer Quaye said the authority’s priority is to build a legacy of transparency and efficiency.
“Our primary objective is to leave behind a legacy where the DVLA is known as a corruption-free office. By plugging loopholes and removing human interference, we can achieve our financial targets while restoring public trust,” Mr. Quaye said.
He stressed that digitising DVLA’s processes would minimise opportunities for corruption and strengthen public confidence in the authority’s operations.
DVLA Chief Executive Officer Julius Neequaye Kotey reiterated the agency’s commitment to digital transformation and operational efficiency.
“We are excited to announce plans to open new branches across the country soon. This will enhance efficiency and reduce corruption,” he said.
Mr. Moses Baiden, Chief Executive of Margins ID Group, assured that his company was ready to support the DVLA’s reform drive. “We are certified and equipped to deliver comprehensive solutions. Policy directives are all we need to move forward,” he noted.
Margins ID Group, with more than three decades of expertise in digital identity and data management, is internationally certified in information security, business continuity, and service management.
The company is expected to provide DVLA with advanced tools in digitisation, data warehousing, smart card printing, and access control management.
Stakeholders said the partnership would not only enhance DVLA’s service delivery but also support the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 16.9 on legal identity for all.
The DVLA believes that by combining technological innovation with a zero-tolerance stance on corruption, it can unlock new revenue streams, expand services nationwide, and restore full public trust in its mandate.
