INTERNATIONAL property consultant Richard Ellis has awarded a 250-vehicle solus supply contract to Lease Plan. The contract will be funded and managed under Lease Plan's Open Calculation product and includes acquisition and disposals, accident management, daily rental vehicles and roadside recovery.

Richard Ellis human resources director Peter Allanson said: 'We chose Lease Plan because the company was able to offer a seamless solution, liaising directly with our drivers and managing our suppliers until expiry of all contracts.'
