Ogilvie Fleet wins Medvivo deal
Part of the HealthHero Group, Medvivo provides out-of-hours and emergency care services in the South West. The organisation required a reliable and flexible fleet solution to meet its complex response needs. According to Vic Hemmings, Facilities Manager at Medvivo, Ogilvie's 'human approach' and 'transparent cost breakdown' were key factors in the decision.
'We've worked with providers who treat you like just another number in a call centre,' Hemmings said. 'Ogilvie assigned a dedicated team to manage our account—and that's exactly what they've done.'
Ogilvie has delivered the first 13 Kia Sportage vehicles, fully equipped for emergency use. The fit-out includes NHS-compliant livery, additional lighting, telematics, and dashcams. The fleet is supplied under a full contract hire and service, maintenance and repair (SMR) package. Medium-term rental and spot hire options are also included to ensure flexibility.
Mark Beattie, Business Development Manager at Ogilvie Fleet, said the partnership began through discussions around Medvivo's rental needs but evolved into a wider contract hire agreement. 'It became clear there was an opportunity to provide a tailored, full-service solution,' he said.
Further vehicle orders are expected as the partnership develops. Ogilvie, which operates nearly 25,000 vehicles across the UK, continues to expand its offering in the healthcare sector with a focus on operational resilience and customer-specific solutions.
