Leasing Services Dynamic Purchasing System

The Leasing Services DPS facilitates access to financial funding for members’ assets through experienced lessors and assistance provided by contracted Leasing Advisors at UniLink Finance Ltd.

A wide range of leasing options are available across four lots, for any and all assets an institution may seek to obtain funding for.

1. Professional advice, guidance from UniLink Finance Ltd
2. UniLink can also offer assistance with evaluating and interpreting bids from lessors
3. Lessor compliance to IFRS, IAS and UK GAAP
4. There are multiple contractors in each category to encourage competition enabling you to demonstrate value for money
5. Improved rates from increased competition and the reduction in lessor’s administration
6. Local lessors can apply to be on the DPS so you can get quotes from them and other lessors that have passed a vetting process
7. All procurement processes are fully auditable as further competitions will be through use of the Sourcing Cloud tendering platform
8. Using this framework supports our Giving Back initiative. Our charity's focus is on SEND, wellbeing and absenteeism

All mini-competitions will be conducted through the Sourcing Cloud platform. Any competition issued under this DPS Agreement should be managed by the CPC appointed Master Lease Vendor, UniLink Finance Ltd.
