Mitie has been awarded a five-year multi-service facilities management contract with SIG plc, a European supplier of specialist building materials.
The contract, which will cover 200 buildings from Aberdeen to Plymouth, will see Mitie provide engineering, front of house and mail services from its document management division.
The agreement has been set up on a framework which will allow additional facilities management services to be rolled into the multi-service contract over time.
The company's engineering division has undertaken a full survey of SIG's assets across its 200 buildings including warehouses, offices and large-scale manufacturing facilities.
Mitie says it will be using its own software to capture and review data, enabling day-to-day monitoring. The data captured will allow its engineering team to manage SIG's equipment using predictive maintenance, meaning better budgeting and reducing costly reactive repair services.
Carlo Alloni, managing director at Mitie, said the company's approach would introduce predictive maintenance "helping SIG to be more proactive and reduce reactive repairs".
