UK Government has inked a new Facilities Management Services Agreement with Carillion plc to outsource up to 4.1 billion of services over the period to July 2019.

It is revealed that Carillion is one of only three companies to be selected for all three Lots in the UK Governments new Facilities Management Services agreement, namely, Total Facilities Management, Hard Facilities Management and Soft Facilities Management. In total, 19 suppliers have been selected for one or more of these three service Lots.

The new Agreement succeeds the current framework for facilities management contracts and Central Government Departments, Executive Agencies and Non-Departmental Public Bodies will be mandated to use the new Agreement to buy facilities management services.

The new Agreement aimed at rendering public sector customers with a simplified and more efficient procurement framework, triming timescales for accessing facilities management services and the Government expects this to result in over 200 million of savings to public sector customers, while offering greater transparency and improved management information.

We are delighted to have secured one of only three places on this framework agreement for all three service Lots, said Carillion plc Chief Executive, Richard Howson, Our selection further enhances our position as a leading provider of facilities management services to the public sector and should offer new opportunities to grow our UK support services business.
