Metso and Lassila & Tikanoja have entered into a facility services agreement that will extend the cooperation between the companies to cover all major Metso offices in Finland. The aim is to make the organisation and management of facility services more cost-efficient by having one primary partner. This will ensure that services are developed continuously, in line with shared goals.
L&T has provided facility services for Metso offices, for example, in Pirkanmaa for several years, and on 1 January 2016, the cooperation will be extended to cover facility services for Metso offices in the Helsinki metropolitan area. The service package includes property maintenance, maintenance of technical systems, renovation, cleaning, support, damage repair, guarding and environmental management services.
'We provide Metso with a service package that helps to keep the properties and factories functional, improves their usability and energy efficiency, and makes the working facilities safe and pleasant for their users. Having just one partner to manage the service package instead of buying individual services from several partners makes everyday procedures more effective and allows us to develop the services continuously at all Metso offices,' says Juha-Matti Laurila, Customer Accounts Director at L&T.
'As a result of a competitive bidding, we decided to centralise our facility services to one supplier as of the start of 2016. We have partnered with L&T for years, and we expect that this extended cooperation will guarantee high-quality, cost-efficient services for us, also in the future. It is important for us that the services are developed and managed as a whole, because it will allow us to focus on our core business,' comments Ann-Mari Mattila, Sourcing Manager at Metso.
