Unity5 uses Real-Time lookups on the DVLA KADOE API Service

Revolutionising Enforcement with Real-Time DVLA KADOE API Service Lookups

At Unity5, we’re constantly pushing the envelope to streamline and enhance the efficiency of enforcement operations. We’re thrilled to announce a major advancement that will set a new benchmark in the industry: our cutting-edge real-time DVLA KADOE API Service lookups are now live.

What Does This Mean for You?
Traditionally, obtaining vehicle keeper information through the DVLA’s KADOE API service involved a waiting game. Files sent to the DVLA could take up to 24 hours for a response, sometimes longer over weekends. This inevitable delay often extended ticket processing times and increased the risk of missing crucial deadlines under the Protection of Freedoms Act (POFA). But that’s all in the past. With our new real-time lookup capability, you can now expect instantaneous responses from the DVLA.

This leap forward means:

  • Instant Access: No more waiting days for a response. Whether it’s Monday or a Friday, you’ll get real-time results, dramatically reducing the wait time for vehicle keeper information.
  • Accelerated Ticket Processing: With live lookups, the entire ticketing process can be completed within a single day. This not only speeds up the workflow, but also minimises the risk of missing critical POFA deadlines.
  • Timely Notices: Motorists will receive their notices much closer to the date of the contravention, ensuring a more accurate and timely communication.
