Interserve wins £13 million contract with Poole Hospital NHS Foundation Trust

Interserve, the international support services and construction group, has been awarded a five year contract worth £13 million to deliver facilities management services for Poole Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.

The company, which is working with the Trust for the first time, will provide domestic cleaning, window cleaning and grounds and gardens services to the main 623-bed Poole hospital site, which also includes the St Mary’s Maternity Unit and the Forest Holme Hospice.

A key element of the account is the focus on service delivery and improvements by introducing new innovations.

Our approach is always to provide a unique service solution, investing in the latest equipment to deliver high service standards, ensuring a clean and safe environment for all.

Paul Miller, Director of Strategy, Poole Hospital NHS Foundation Trust said:

“Interserve has demonstrated that it understands our requirements and can consistently deliver to a high standard. We are confident that our partnership with Interserve will help the Trust continue our development of a responsive, high quality service using the latest cleaning technology.”
