Business Analyst roles at DVLA play a crucial role in helping the IT Services team to continually improve the Agency’s core online services. Take a deeper look at the great work our Business Analysts do, and see how you could fit in our award-winning team.
Being responsive and adapting to new challenges are key skills within DVLA’s IT Services team. You don’t need to look any further than our response to the COVID-19 outbreak for a prime example.
We successfully moved our teams that were office-based to working remotely in just a 24-hour period – all while continuing to support and improve our online services when Britain’s drivers needed us most. As the pandemic presented more challenges to DVLA’s service, ITS continued delivery of the portfolio of change and a range of new online services to help our Agency’s response.
But have you ever wondered about the people that solve these problems, and how they make these changes a reality?
Building services with a Business Analyst
One of the key roles behind these changes has been our Business Analyst community at DVLA. We have a range of Business Analyst roles at DVLA, who work closely with customers, stakeholders and our software engineering teams to understand where the business and our services can be improved.
Business Analysts are able to build great relationships between stakeholders and development teams to shape and deliver services and products that are fit for purpose, give great customer service and reflect our organisational strategy.
DVLA’s Business Analysts have played a crucial role in the Agency’s highest profile projects in the last year. In June 2020 we developed a vehicle management solution whereby customers could change the address on the vehicle log book (V5C) online. Where the DVLA used to process approximately 1.4 million log books through the post, users are now able to easily update their information online and be sent their new V5C in five working days.
We also introduced an online tachograph service for HGV drivers in July 2021. Our new service makes applying for a tachograph quick and easy for our customers, where they can reduce their waiting time by applying and paying online.
