Following a competitive tender process, corporate office FM specialist Anabas has retained its contract with biopharmaceutical company, UCB.
The new seven-figure deal is for a five-year term with the option to extend for a further two years.
Under the contract terms, Anabas is supporting UCB with the effective facilities management of its current UK headquarters in Slough and its future operation at UCB’s new campus when it relocates to Windlesham, Surrey.
The contract extension follows the initial Anabas-UCB partnership which commenced in 2017 and includes account management, reception, office and logistics services, mail room, cleaning and environmental services, and grounds maintenance.
UCB is a global biopharmaceutical company dedicated to discovering and developing treatments that aim to transform the lives of people living with neurological and immunological conditions. The UK is home to one of UCB’s three state-of-the art global discovery research centres.
Alistair Craig, MD at Anabas said: “It is a great honour to have retained our contract at UCB. It is testament to the high-quality service our Anabas team delivers and the outstanding working relationship we have with the UCB senior management team.”
Les O’Gorman, Head of UK Facilities Management at UCB said: “We are delighted to continue our relationship with Anabas as our soft FM provider. The workplace services Anabas provide are vital in helping our colleagues making UCB a great place to work.”
FMJ in conjunction with Grundon Waste Management is pleased to launch the 2023 waste management and recycling survey which examines the ways in which FMs approach their waste management responsibilities.
In this, the sixth year for the annual appraisal, we know there is a greater opportunity than ever for FMs to reappraise their waste and recycling operations and help their organisations meet the growing pressure to achieve ESG goals.
We want to learn how FMs have adapted to the legislative, economic and societal changes of the past year and how they plan to meet the latest waste and recycling targets.
In this survey we’ve posed a series of questions which include insights into FMs’ waste management strategy and targets, how they’re moving towards zero waste targets, and the importance of not just meeting compliance targets but also ESG goals.
The results of the 2023 survey will be published in FMJ magazine and form the basis of a white paper co-written by FMJ and the experts at Grundon on how to approach waste and recycling strategies.
