Operating Lease for Staff Laptop Devices (48 Months)

The Sir John Brunner Foundation is seeking a leasing provider to supply a 48-month operating lease for staff laptop devices for The Sir John Deane's Sixth Form College. The hardware has already been procured through a separate competitive process, and this opportunity focuses solely on leasing services. The successful provider will purchase the specified equipment from the appointed hardware supplier and manage the complete operating lease, including fixed pricing for the full contract term with options for annual or quarterly advance payments. Providers must handle all contract administration, ensure compliance with legal and accounting requirements for operating leases, and deliver clear end-of-term arrangements. Tenderers should provide detailed information on equipment return procedures, collection and logistics costs, data destruction and disposal charges, damage assessment standards, and any additional charges at lease expiry. The Foundation prefers fixed and transparent end-of-term charges with a clearly defined and capped damage charging mechanism. A detailed equipment schedule with device specifications and quantities will be provided to qualified suppliers upon request.
