RWE npower renew facilities management contract with MITIE

MITIE, the strategic outsourcing company, is pleased to announce it has retained its facilities management(FM) contract with RWE npower, a leading integrated UK energy company. 

The five-year multi-million pound contract involves more than 240 MITIE people looking after services for RWE npower which include security, cleaning, waste, energy management and engineering and maintenance across 60+ sites nationally. 

In the retender RWE npower was looking for a supplier that was able to demonstrate the scale and flexibility needed to deliver value and savings across its estate. MITIE was able to do this and will continue to build on the existing relationship and adapt to RWE npower business requirements.

Martyn Freeman, Managing Director of MITIE’s facilities management division, said: “We’ve been working with RWE npower since 1998 providing integrated facilities services to its main sites around the UK. We’ve been able to make considerable savings and efficiencies by the reduction to one service provider with one multiskilled team, and we will continue to innovate, provide great service and deliver real value to RWE npower over the next five years.”

Notes for editors

What is MITIE?
We’re the strategic outsourcing company. What does that mean in practice? We manage facilities, properties and assets for our clients across the UK and beyond.

We work with our clients in three ways; some take full advantage of our whole range of expertise, others may only need one aspect of what we do:

Strategy and consultancy
+ Facilities and project management
+ Service delivery

Our strategic input can add value at the highest level by helping clients to manage their assets, while our practical management expertise can save customers money and reduce their carbon emissions. We work with a vast number of clients in every industry across both the public and private sectors and deliver the broadest range of services that can be found in one place: from integrated facilities management to engineering maintenance to lifecycle energy management and much more.

There’s a lot more to MITIE than you probably think. We’re a big company with big ambitions – a leading FTSE 250 support services business, with more than 56,000 people, revenues in excess of £1.7bn, and a reputation for being the best.
