Scape appoints Carillion as sole provider for £1.5billion facilities management framework
Carillion has been appointed by Scape Group as the sole provider for a new facilities management framework with a value of up to £1.5 billion over a six-year period.
Scape, which is a public sector owned built environment specialist, offers a full suite of national frameworks and selected Carillion ahead of other competitors, because it offered the best quality and value for money.
This is the first framework of its kind, which is available to any public sector body in the UK, that offers a full suite of both "hard, " (including preventative and planned maintenance) and "soft" (including cleaning, catering, front of house) facilities management services. Other services that are also available through the framework include, but are not limited to, car park management, Health and Safety advice, consultancy, grounds maintenance and the management of internal office mail and messaging services. The framework is OJEU approved, which simplifies the procurement process so that users can develop and procure services within a four-week period.
Carillion chief executive Richard Howson said: "We are delighted to have been selected by Scape as their partner for delivering facilities management services to public sector bodies through this innovative framework. Combining Carillion's national FM capability with Scape's unique link to the public sector will provide customers with efficient access to value-for-money services."
