Vehicle and plant hire

Framework No: 0225

About this framework

Framework period: 20 August 2026 to 19 August 2030

Scotland Excel’s vehicle and plant hire framework allows members to procure the hire of vehicles or plant on a daily, weekly, monthly, six monthly, annual, eighteen monthly or twenty-four monthly basis, to support the requirements of fleet and roads departments. The framework assists members in dealing with seasonal or intermittent demands by providing a route for members to supplement their existing vehicle and plant provision.

As with all our frameworks, this framework was developed in close consultation with key stakeholders. It is fully compliant with all legislative requirements and was developed in line with Scotland Excel’s sustainable procurement approach.
