Fleet procurement is the acquisition of goods or services used in the operation of a fleet, and is often much more involved than simply negotiating a price which is fixed for a couple of years.
There are many elements, most of them variable, which makes this part of fleet management a complex exercise, requiring expertise and insight.
For example, when it comes to procuring vehicles there are a lot of moving parts such as manufacturer prices, residual values and the cost of money, and sometimes what an organisation gets quoted when they do a deal can be different when it starts to order.
When a service is procured, they need ongoing monitoring and regular reviews with suppliers to ensure the service received is as agreed when the deal is signed.
