## Description

Ubico are arranging a Market Engagement event on 27 April 2017 at the Cheltenham Park Hotel to explain our company structure and explore ideas for a potential future procurement programme\. 11:00 - 12:30 hours for Cars and Light Commercial Vehicles 13:30 - 15:00 hours for Refuse, Road sweepers, specialist HGV's and grounds vehicles\. Additional information: Ubico control a rapidly growing fleet, currently in excess of 350 vehicles and plant items\. Our objective is to explore how we can establish and grow relationships with potential suppliers, with the aim of maximising our buying power\. We anticipate being able to secure mutual benefits through improved purchasing terms, in return for offering restricted supplier status for a defined period, thus offering planned business volumes to our appointed suppliers\. The objective of the event is to ascertain the feasibility of a different procurement approach and/or a potential reduction in the number of suppliers who could benefit from either a potential sole or dual supply arrangement that will ensure Ubico Limited obtain the maximum volume of vehicles over a four year period or longer\. We wish to establish relationships with potential future suppliers and to actively seek their input as to the best way to work through this process, for the mutual benefit of Ubico and its suppliers\.
