Lease Advisory Services
We have a framework which allows you to access lease facilities with carefully selected partners. The framework can be used to finance a wide range of purchases including any of your technology-based items including iPads, whiteboards, printers and multi-function devices and much more.
Customer benefits
- you are free to choose the best items, supplier and purchase price to meet your own requirements
- we eliminate the need to source leasing from equipment suppliers, which is typically far more expensive and is often a finance lease
- as part of the tender process we sourced finance quotes from multiple parties so that you do not have to
- the framework allows access to IIAS17 compliant operating leases, over two, three and four year terms
- the pre-tendered lease rates are easily applied to all product categories
- all leases are written on preferential lease documentation
- the framework is OJEU-compliant
- we have already reviewed the lease documentation, so you can be confident it doesn’t include any nasty surprises or surplus charges
Coverage
The lease advisory services framework can be used UK wide.
