OCS snags five-year facilities management contract with major U.K. law firm

by Shane Henson — November 7, 2011—OCS, a U.K.-based, international company providing total facilities management services, will lend its expertise to Irwin Mitchell, reportedly one of the U.K.’s most successful and respected law firms, during a five-year contract that includes the provision of catering, cleaning, mechanical and electrical, pest control, courier, mailroom, document management, security, travel desk and waste management services across the firm’s national network of offices.

According to Irwin Mitchell representatives, OCS’s comprehensive experience in providing facilities support to the professional services sector will allow Irwin Mitchell to focus on its core business, following the law firm’s major expansion over recent years. Other companies in the professional services sector may also benefit from outsourcing their facilities management work to OCS.

“OCS is perfectly positioned to deliver the complete range of facilities management services on behalf of its clients,” said Martin Gammon, OCS Group UK’s managing director. “To maximize convenience for the client, OCS oversees this process from the outset to ensure continuous efficiency and guaranteed cost savings in supply base delivery.”
