ABM Strengthens Its Partnership With London Fire Brigade

ABM Strengthens Its Partnership With London Fire Brigade
05 March 2026
 

ABM, a provider of facility, engineering, transport and infrastructure solutions, has expanded its contract with London Fire Brigade (LFB).

The existing contract with ABM runs across 51 stations for the north region of LFB’s estate, delivering a comprehensive suite of mechanical and engineering, plumbing, fabric and specialist trade services, including HVAC, critical systems, building management and fuel delivery systems.



The contract has been expanded from February to cover more sites in the south region and includes LFB’s headquarters, its operational support centre and 999 call centre. 

ABM has held the LFB North contract since January 2023, following a competitive tender process.  Since then, the team has strengthened service delivery by ensuring operational efficiencies, raising on-site performance standards and embedding a culture of continuous improvement which has been instrumental in driving the expansion of the partnership.

Claire Page, Head of Property at London Fire Brigade, said: “Ensuring our buildings and critical systems are reliable and resilient is essential to supporting our firefighters and teams as they serve Londoners. The work delivered to date clearly demonstrates the technical capability, rapid responsiveness and deep understanding of our operational environment required to support the wider estate.”  

Richard Sykes, SVP and President of ABM UK and Ireland, said: “We are delighted to be growing our partnership with LFB. Expanding this contract reflects the trust built through consistent delivery, strong collaboration and a deep understanding of the critical nature of London Fire Brigade operations. This is an important milestone for ABM and creates a strong foundation for a long-term partnership.”
