I am interested in purchasingSika T54 adhesive for a solid wood floor onto concrete. The house is a new build with DPM throughout. Do I need a further DPM before I apply this flooring adhesive?

Sika T54 is designed for exactly this purpose and the MB Primer is not absolutely necessary apart from peace of mind - so long as the moisture content of the concrete is less than 5%. The best solution is to get hold of a good moisture meter and test the concrete - this is particularly relevant with new builds as new concrete screeds can take about 90 days to dry out.
There are vinyl tiles under my carpet which are stuck to the concrete floor with bitumen. It's all flaky and the tiles are really easy to get up - can I glue solid wood flooring direct to the concrete?

We would recommend putting down SIka MB Primer but you need remove 95% of the bitumen up off the floor because the wood flooring adhesive cannot be guaranteed to stick to the 'oily' bitumen surface. Then use Sikabond T54 adhesive.
