Worth an estimated £16m in total turnover over an initial four-year period, Dalkia has been appointed through QTS LLP, a wholly-owned subsidiary of CNWL, responsible for estates and facilities management to the Trust and other healthcare providers.
Services provided by Dalkia to CNWL include heating, ventilation, air conditioning, electrical, fabric and grounds maintenance services. These are complemented by comprehensive management information produced through Dalkia’s in house data platform Aurora to pro-actively monitor and manage the performance of the service.
The success of this project was in the planning and supporting a strategic approach to the outcome which was ultimately to find a service provider who would significantly improve user wellbeing and safety.
