Leading facilities management provider EMCOR UK has been awarded a multi-million pound contract by Anglian Water to perform integrated facilities management services across 84 of its UK sites.
Commencing July 1, 2017 EMCOR UK will provide services at 13 of Anglian Water’s corporate sites in locations across Cambridgeshire, Lincolnshire, Essex, and Norfolk.
Throughout the first year of the contract an additional 71 operational sites will be added to the portfolio. The contract duration is for five years, with an option to extend for a further four years.
When the contract first went out to tender in April last year estimated potential contract value was put at £60 million.
The Anglian Water contract is the fourth water utilities company contract awarded to EMCOR UK in four years.
EMCOR UK will be responsible for performing hard and soft facilities management services (which it will be self-delivering), including mechanical and electrical maintenance, cleaning, reception services, manned guarding, and managing external service providers.
The company will be implementing its mobile workforce technology platform across the portfolio of sites in order to help Anglian Water maintain its estate in accordance with applicable statutory requirements, improving responsiveness and productivity, whilst reducing costs.
The EMCOR UK team will also support Anglian Water in the development of various programmes, ranging from employee wellbeing and workplace productivity, to the transformation of current systems and methods of work.
Keith Chanter, CEO, EMCOR UK commented:
“We are exceedingly pleased to have been selected by Anglian Water to deliver integrated facilities management services, further demonstrating the abilities and skills of our team to fulfill the exacting standards and perform according to the rigid specifications required in a highly regulated environment.”
“We believe EMCOR UK and Anglian Water share a similar set of values which team members abide by in daily operations. It is with great anticipation that we look forward to working collaboratively with Anglian Water in the years to come.”
Karen King, Group Facilities Contract Manager at Anglian Water commented:
“We are delighted to welcome EMCOR UK to our portfolio of sites. Key to the award was EMCOR UK’s commitment to our core values whilst delivering operational resilience and regulatory compliance, which is an essential requirement in our sector.”
