Bellrock Group have secured a 5-year contract to deliver hard facilities services to West Sussex County Council (WSCC) with the potential to extend up to a further five years. Valued at up to £10 million per annum, the deal covers nine types of property, across over 200 corporate sites.
The diverse portfolio, spread over 760 square miles, requires a broad mix of hard FM services, including Planned Preventative Maintenance, Reactive Maintenance and Projects. Bellrock’s recent investment in capabilities, including January’s acquisition of mobile data experts, Mobiess, will enable delivery of the full range of services WSCC need.
This wide-ranging offering, delivered with a focus on long-term condition-based maintenance, was key to Bellrock’s selection. As well as guaranteeing safe, comfortable and compliant spaces, Bellrock expertise is set to reduce WSCC’s overall reactive maintenance spend.
”It’s a big win, and a very important new client. Protecting such a diverse portfolio of properties is always a serious responsibility, but it’s one we take on proudly. We’ve deliberately grown our business and evolved our capabilities to offer best-in-class services where they’re needed most.
Paul Bean, CEO at Bellrock
Bellrock have also committed to working closely with West Sussex County Council to develop social value objectives for the contract. These will deliver positive outcomes for the local community and environment, in alignment with the council’s Social Value Framework.
”WSCC were delighted to award the contract to Bellrock, who provided the most competitive and comprehensive tender. It reflects a step change in how WSCC will be approaching the delivery of hard FM going forwards. I especially welcome Bellrock’s commitment to work with the County Council on our shared social value objectives. I look forward to a long and mutually beneficial relationship.
Jeremy Hunt, Cabinet Member for Finance and Property
A three-month mobilisation period started on 1 July, preparing for full-service delivery beginning in October this year.
