They were facing significant problems establishing desired standards of service, compliance and management reporting across offices in 16 challenging markets in the Middle East, Africa, Eastern Europe and the Balkans. ‘’We approached KEY because they appeared to provide what no other International Facilities Management Supplier (IFM) could – a professional facilities service in countries where most of the larger IFM Suppliers do not operate. Countries where doing business is difficult, currencies are unstable, unethical business practices are common and yet where companies want or need to do business. We have found the leaders at KEY to be understanding and flexible. Our relationship goes back to 2012 and we renewed our contract with them in 2015 and again in 2018. KEY typically have found a way of working with an established local company as a basis for a local contract to deliver the services we need and have used their business acumen, knowledge and experience to manage the relationship with both the local provider and the interface with the leadership on our sites” Executive Director, Facilities EMEA The Solution Our Global Capability solution comprises a centralised management, reporting and support ‘hub, combined with a ‘spoke’ of local supply chain partners. As the Facilities Management profession was immature in most of the markets, we needed to find the right people. We then trained and equipped them to manage, and deliver, to the customers’ standards. Through this combination of our management know-how with minimal local resources, we have achieved an efficient and cost-effective solution. This is at once tailored to local needs, while also providing executives with desired levels of overarching operational control, visibility and consistency. After successfully mobilising this complex contract, we managed it for three years before receiving a further three year extension. At that time, the client acknowledged that no other FM provider has the capability to offer a service across these markets.
