How an introduction works

Before we introduce a supplier

We review your enquiry manually — no automated routing.
We do not broadcast your details to multiple suppliers.
Where there is a fit, we introduce one suitable supplier only.
Your hire agreement is direct with that supplier, not with UVH.
Submitting an enquiry does not commit you to hire.
