by Ann Withanee — December 22, 2010—UGL Services, a division of UGL Limited, has signed a contract with Brevard College in Brevard, North Carolina, to provide integrated facilities services. The renewable contract extends to June of 2015.
The 35-person UGL Services staff provides custodial, housekeeping, landscaping and athletics field maintenance, and building operations and maintenance, as well as renovation and construction services for the 650-student campus that includes 38 buildings and covers 120 acres.
UGL Services also brings its approach to campus-wide sustainability through its award-winning UGL Services GreenClean facilities services program. Especially relevant to college campuses, UGL Services GreenClean includes employee training, the use of sustainable cleaning and landscaping chemicals and techniques, and special communication and sustainability programs with students, faculty and staff.
“UGL Services’ environmental orientation fits perfectly with our campus-wide theme, ‘Sustainability: Awareness into Action,'” said Brevard Vice President of Business and Finance Deborah Hall. “As a community we are looking at the ecological, economic, and social impacts of sustainability; encompassing campus operations into this theme is an outstanding extension of the facilities program that UGL Services brings to our campus.”
“Brevard College is a community where students, faculty and staff live and work,” explained UGL Services Senior Director Jim Craig. “Our objective is to provide a clean, healthy campus that promotes student well-being while protecting the environment. The fact that we can tie in so well with BC’s sustainability awareness program promises to make the relationship even stronger.”
