Interserve has been awarded an extension until 2016 to its facilities management contract with London Borough of Croydon. The contract is estimated to be worth £10m a year.
Since 2006 the council has realised £6m worth of savings through their partnership with Interserve.
With pressures to reduce spending, Interserve has developed a strategic proposal that will deliver further cost savings through an innovative management approach, new service delivery models and changes to service outputs for low-risk service lines.
Interserve delivers core services including building maintenance, security, cleaning, mailroom, reprographics, energy and utilities management, room bookings, porterage and minor and major projects. The contract also includes strategic services such as health and safety, asset and lifecycle management and sustainable development.
When awarded in 2006, the contract was one of the first of a new breed of integrated total facilities management partnerships, designed to use the facilities’ portfolio as an enabler for change and improvement.
