Rental car agreement

Enterprise Rent-a-Car holds the state of Georgia car rental contract for travel within the state. It has two major implications for faculty and staff traveling on official state business by automobile.

First, faculty and staff must determine the most cost-effective form of transportation given the travel arrangements. Employees must now evaluate the cost of using a rental car from Enterprise against the cost of using a UGA fleet vehicle or a personal vehicle for travel within the state.

For out-of-state travel, the cost comparison would be among a UGA fleet vehicle, a personal vehicle and the most advantageous rental vehicle available that meets the traveler’s needs. However, this cost analysis is only one factor that faculty and staff are to consider in determining which, in their judgment, is the most practical and advantageous form of travel.

Second, the contract makes Enterprise the sole car rental provider UGA faculty and staff may utilize for travel within Georgia. Employees may use National Car Rental for out-of-state car rental services, but other rental car companies can be utilized when circumstances warrant it, such as better pricing or availability.
