The Provider will give access to BBC staff to a fleet of ULEV electric cars for personal lease and provide all elements of the lease including, but not limited to, insurance, tax, maintenance and breakdown cover. The contract is for an initial three year period with an optional extension of a further two years, with staff able to take up a lease in any of these years.
