The GPA has appointed JLL as its strategic partner for workplace services performance.
The 바카라 사이트 Property Agency (GPA) has appointed JLL, a leading professional services firm that specialises in real estate and investment management, as its strategic partner for workplace services performance.
Following a robust and comprehensive procurement process via the Crown Commercial Services Estates Management Services framework (RM 6168), JLL has been awarded an initial three and a half year contract, plus up to two one-year extension options.
JLL and the GPA have worked together on a variety of mandates and this latest announcement will see JLL deliver workplace service performance solutions.
The contract award is a key feature within the GPA바카라 사이트™s Workplace Services Transformation Programme (WSTP) which exists to evolve how the 바카라 사이트바카라 사이트™s office estate is managed and operated. It is transforming workplace services to ensure they are optimised for resilience and business continuity, while reducing any operational downtime. The Programme is supporting UK-wide economic growth through regionally-focused SME engagement and local employment, and enhancing productivity and engagement with civil servants through improved digital solutions and streamlined service support. It is also driving towards zero carbon through improved building conditions; and better value through improved service quality.
As part of the strategic partnership, JLL will operate a national helpdesk to streamline customer support across the GPA바카라 사이트™s portfolio for greater efficiency and satisfaction.
Service requirements also include mobilisation and demobilisation support, as well as provide data management and analysis, cost review and management, and reporting. JLL will also provide call-off support for property transfers, strategic advice, technical support, training, business continuity and disaster recovery.
Social Value was a key driver within the tender documents, focusing on environmental benefits to drive towards Net Zero, and tackling economic inequality through training and employment programmes in the regions.
