West Midlands Police has appointed Wates FM to deliver a one-stop maintenance service, which will involve planned preventative maintenance and responsive repairs across mechanical, electrical and water services at the force's Headquarters at Lloyd House in Birmingham.
The contract will run for two years, with an opportunity to extend for an additional three years.
Wates FM launched in June, a move that has seen the Wates Group enhance its total facilities management offering with expanded nationwide capabilities tailored to the needs of both the private and public sectors. It formerly operated as Wates Smartspace FM.

"Above all things we believe in providing bespoke solutions that cater to our clients' individual needs and we are very proud to have developed a service package for West Midlands Police that will support their vital day-to-day operations."
Wates FM currently manages over 350 commercial properties, delivering services including statutory compliance, cleaning, security, catering, porterage, front-of-house, help desks and computer-aided facilities management (CAFM), as well as mechanical and electrical and building fabric maintenance through a mix of site based and mobile teams.
