Close Brothers Vehicle Hire has awarded BT Fleet Solutions a five-year fleet management contract for its 2,700-strong LCV fleet.
The deal follows on from an initial request to consult on the supply of tyres for Close Brothers Vehicle Hire’s LCV and HGV fleets, which expanded into an invitation to also tender for the fleet management deal for the LCV fleet.
The contract comes on the back of rapid expansion of Close Brothers’ LCV fleet, which has almost doubled in size over a 30-month period, and will see BT Fleet Solutions provide a white-labelled service to Close Brothers customers, including a pro-active maintenance programme, responsive breakdown/recovery programme and administration.
Terry Ottey, managing director of Close Brothers Vehicle Hire, said: “We’ve chosen to partner with BT Fleet Solutions based upon our belief in their ability to deliver against three key selection criteria: customer service delivery, innovation and positive commercial impact.
“We believe that BT Fleet Solutions understand our service delivery expectations and they will support our own in-house team to deliver a first-class service experience.”
