Industry update: contract wins

Citex Asia has teamed up with Vigers to land a multi-million pound contract for FM services at Cable & Wireless Hong Kong Telecom. Included are repairs, maintenance, alterations and additions to most of the client's properties, as well as the provision of services to other tenants in those properties.

Citex will take on a team of 30 managers, in addition to its existing 150 staff, in support of C&W's intention to focus more closely on core business.

Closer to home, Johnson Controls has already started work, following the award of a £2M three-year contract at BP Amoco's Sullom Voe Terminal in the Shetlands. On this 1000-acre site, Johnson is providing building maintenance, cleaning, fleet management and catering services, as well as managing employee housing stock.

BP Amoco appointed Johnson Controls for FM service at its Grangemouth site last year.

Shell Services International has awarded Pall Mall a three-year contract renewal for cleaning and support services at the London Shell Centre. Pall Mall has been on this site for 12 years, winning out through three competitive tenders.
