Days Contract Hire has secured a preferred suppliers contract with the social housing purchasing consortium, Procurement for Housing (PfH).

As one of PfH's nominated, preferred suppliers, Days Contract Hire will be responsible for supplying a multi-faceted fleet solutions package, including fleet management services for both cars and commercial vehicles.

The vehicles supplied will be used to help distribute goods and services to more than 800 social housing providers throughout the UK.

PfH members now represent over 60% of the UK's total social housing stock, producing a saving of around ú50 million a year to the social housing providers.

Category manager of Procurement for Housing Kayleigh Blackburn said: "We were impressed by Days Contract Hire's knowledge of the industry.

“We liked that it offers a consultancy package, one of the key reasons it was successful at winning nominated, preferred supplier status. This personal approach not only offers value for money, but also provides an invaluable fleet management support service to PfH members."
