Transport for London (TfL) has revealed plans to award five or six facilities management (FM) deals to four contractors.

Engie Services, Interserve FM, Lanes Group and Vinci Construction will provide a number of services including fire protection, mechanical and electrical facilities, such as power and water, buildings maintenance, and security and reception services.

A sixth contract, which will be for cleaning, is to be awarded this summer. Overall the five-year contracts, which have a three-year extension option, have a total value of £320 million.

TfL expects to save around £34m by consolidating 50 contracts into just six, forming part of TfL's wider approach to delivering the Mayor's plans for improved transport in the Capital.

The deals include a commitment for all employees to be paid the London Living Wage as well as the creation of an additional 300 apprenticeship positions.

David Wylie, Chief Procurement Officer at TfL, said: "We are looking forward to working with our suppliers on these new contracts and by consolidating the existing arrangements, our facilities will be managed in a more efficient and cost-effective way.

"We are committed to making sure that our organisation is representative of the customers that it serves and inspiring the next generation into the transport industry. These new contracts reaffirm how both TfL and our suppliers consider skills and equality and diversity to be key priorities that we need to deliver on."
