## Description
The Project
GTR are looking to procure a partner(s) to provide the long-term contract hire and short- term rental of Ancillary Vehicles (Van and Cars) use by various departments with GTR across the GTR Network.
At present GTR run a fleet of Diesel vehicles consisting primarily of Large, Medium & Small Panel vans as well as some cars. All these vehicles are currently provided from one incumbent supplier on a Contract Hire lease. A small number of vehicles are also hired on an adhoc short term (1-year Max) rental basis from the same provider.
In line with the current GTR sustainability strategy the aim is reduce the environmental carbon  footprint by replacing this fleet with more environmentally friendly fully electric or hybrid vehicles.
The purpose is to run a competitive tender to gain a partner(s) to provide a fleet of Large, Medium & Small vans & cars on a 3 year contract hire with an ongoing framework whereby adhoc short term rentals are supplied to ensure:-
• Alignment to GTR's vision/values/strategic pillars
• Reducing GTR's carbon  footprint
• Vehicle tracking & telemetry technology to provide information on vehicle location & driver performance.
The final structure of the Tender may be based around a combined package or individual lease & rental package lots.
The combined value of all these lots will be for up to £0.5m per annum and the contract award will be for a duration of up to 3 years. The annual value could vary due to annual budget reviews and depending on external impacts to the railway network. 
About GTR:
• 4 individual consumer brands (Gatwick Express, Great Northern, Southern & Thameslink)
running across an extended geography with multiple train and stations.
• 239 managed stations.
• over 500 units in its train fleet.
• GTR has one of the largest estates amongst UK TOCs, with a geographically far reaching network covering over 800 route miles across the South East of England.
