Prestige Fleet Servicing (Prestige) has won the In-Life Services Supplier of the Year Award in the annual LeasePlan supplier awards.

Prestige commercial director Joe Bhamra was presented with the award at an awards ceremony near Oxford by Sharon Miles, transformation director at LeasePlan UK.

The award is the fourth that Prestige has received from LeasePlan in the past three years, and recognises the developments and refinements to in-life services that the company has made in the last 12 months.

Bhamra said: “We are delighted to have won the award, the fourth we have been presented with by LeasePlan UK in the last three years, as it recognises the excellent support we provide to both LeasePlan car and light commercial vehicle fleet customers.

“Over the past 12 months, we have developed a number of key solutions for LeasePlan, including the development of new systems and the refining of authorisation processes, which have delivered savings in both costs and time.  

“In each case, we have ensured that we have delivered solutions in accordance with LeasePlan’s Net Promoter Score standards.

“At the same time, we have expanded our network of service centres by 23% with the addition of 50 new centres, to ensure we have one in the vicinity of every LeasePlan driver.”

Neil Dixon, head of procurement and supplier management at LeasePlan UK, said: “Our awards recognise suppliers who deliver excellent service to both LeasePlan and our customers on a consistent basis. Prestige has demonstrated this consistency and excellence of service, and fully deserves the new award for In-Life Services Supplier.”

Prestige managing director Colin Bate added: “Naturally, we are delighted to win this award from LeasePlan, a world-leading provider of fleet management services and one of the UK’s largest and most respected leasing companies, as it is industry recognition of the support we provide through our growing network of Service Centres.”
