International property adviser, CBRE, has been appointed to provide FM services to Airbus at its two UK sites

Following a tender process, CBRE was awarded the contract through its recently acquired technical engineering services arm, Norland Managed Services.

The company will deliver mechanical and electrical engineering, building fabric, commercial and industrial cleaning, waste management, transport and mailroom services, and grounds maintenance at Filton, near Bristol and Broughton in Flintshire, Wales.

The agreement also includes a partnership between CBRE, Axis Cleaning and Support Services, and Biffa Integrated Resource Management, to provide cleaning and waste management services.

“This appointment reflects the strength of our integrated FM credentials including our track record of operating in critical environments,” stated Ian Entwisle, CEO, Global Corporate Services (GCS) EMEA, CBRE. “Bringing these services under one contract will provide Airbus with many benefits, including a single source provider, cost efficiencies and unrivalled expertise and knowledge in the integrated FM arena.”
