The Metropolitan Police initiated a procurement competition seeking a single industry partner to provide hard FM and engineering services. The Met had decided to transform its relationship with industry, moving from a North and South model to a single partnering arrangement to maintain its complex, critical and diverse estate. This estate, covering 160 sites, includes non-standard assets ranging from aviation, stables, port and training facilities to micro assets such as 36,000 lockers. Our Client, a major UK FM entity, had targeted the contract as a new business opportunity and tasked WaND with supporting them in securing it.

As part of its Defence Estates Optimization Programme (DEOP), MOD sought Delivery Partners for 5 Regional and 6 Major Projects packages of accommodation and technical infrastructure, totaling £3.65Bn. Our Client considered achieving a significant role in DEOP as fundamental to its defence business.

The Defence Infrastructure Organisation’s (DIO) £3bn FDIS Programme was launched in 2019. Included within this was the Built Estate element which included four regional contracts delivering Hard Facilities Management (FM) services for the UK Defence built estate valued at a total of £1.6bn. The Contracts themselves would be for an initial 7yrs and contain 3 additional performance related option years Understandably, there was significant interest from industry in this procurement, not only from those who already had a strong presence within the Defence FM sector, but also from those who saw this as an opportunity to access a new market. One of these was VINCI Facilities, a leading provider of nationwide Facilities Management services to the public sector, but someone who wanted to grow their presence within Defence.
