What is being bought
ESPO is a public sector-owned professional buying organisation offering a comprehensive range of procurement services, including access to over 100 free-to-access framework solutions for the wider public sector. ESPO framework for the medium/long term hire/lease of specialist vehicles, including internal combustion engine and alternatively fuelled options. The Framework is divided into 9 lots. Note: The “Contract value” per lot as captured in this notice is for the overall framework (with this same overall value being captured per lot), as ESPO offers no guarantees or estimates of value that may pass through each individual lot (but the overall usage across all lots is not expected to exceed this overall framework value). For any additional details please also refer to https://www.espo.org/specialist-vehicle-contract-hire-leasing-218-26.html Note: Overall framework award was concluded on 23/07/2026, with this notice being published to follow on from this.
