Vehicle Hire For Public Sector Organisations Through CCS
Last Updated: 20th December 2024
Public sector organisations rely on efficient, reliable, and cost-effective services to deliver essential projects and operations. Crown Commercial Service (CCS) frameworks exist to make this process simpler, helping public bodies access pre-approved suppliers for critical services, including vehicle hire.
At U-Drive, we are proud to be named as a supplier on CCS’s Vehicle Hire Solutions framework on Lot 1 and Lot 2, enabling us to provide tailored vehicle hire solutions for key public sector sectors such as central government, health, local government, and UK emergency services, ensuring our services meet the diverse needs of public sector organisations across the UK.
What are CCS Frameworks?
Crown Commercial Service supports the public sector to achieve maximum commercial value when procuring common goods and services.
In 2023/24, CCS helped the public sector to achieve commercial benefits worth over £4.9 billion - supporting world-class public services that offer best value for taxpayers.
Crown Commercial Service frameworks connect public sector organisations with trusted suppliers, offering services that meet strict standards for quality, compliance, and value.
For vehicle hire, CCS's Vehicle Hire Solutions framework ensures that public sector clients can access a wide range of vehicles at competitive, pre-negotiated rates, while simplifying the procurement process.
