\"Harrow<\/a>Cofely has been awarded a five year contract by Harrow Council to deliver a range of facilities and energy efficiency services.<\/p>\n

The partnership will see Cofely deliver mechanical & electrical maintenance, building fabric, cleaning and a range of security services across the Council\u2019s 162 building portfolio.\u00a0 It will also include energy efficiency services in support of the Council\u2019s carbon reduction strategy and initiatives to tackle fuel poverty.\u00a0 In total, 420 employees will transfer to Cofely under TUPE arrangements.<\/p>\n

The new contract brings together a number of smaller contracts previously managed by different Council departments into a single outsourced delivery. This will deliver greater consistency and efficiency of services, lifecycle visibility and projected financial savings in the order of 20%.<\/p>\n

Another key aspect of the partnership is a number of wide-ranging social value commitments which will deliver significant benefits to the local community.\u00a0 These will support the Councils own priorities for the vulnerable, communities, local businesses and families.<\/p>\n

To support these priorities Cofely will create a number of apprenticeships and graduate and work placements. It will also establish a new Harrow Community Fund to directly back local community projects and also provide training and volunteering opportunities for Harrow residents.<\/p>\n

Venetia Reid-Baptiste of Harrow Council commented: \u201cBy working with Cofely we will be able to deliver a significant improvement in services to the local community while meeting our commitment to reduce costs. I have no doubt this partnership will prove to be of great benefit to Harrow residents.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cofely\u2019s UK CEO Wilfrid Petrie added: “We look forward to developing a strong relationship with Harrow Council that will make not only a real difference to the delivery of council services but also to the sustainable development of the wider community as a whole.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
