Houston, TX, Sept 14, 2015 - (ACN Newswire) - KBR, Inc. (NYSE: KBR) announced today it has been selected as the single supplier on the Crown Commercial Service Facilities Management (FM) Assurance Framework; a United Kingdom cross-government collaborative approach to contract management.
Services to be provided under the Framework include helpdesk services, a Computer Aided Facilities Management (CAFM) System, the supply of management information, and reporting and FM assurance services, which include reviewing performance of facilities management suppliers.
This new approach, introduced by the Crown Commercial Service (CCS), an executive agency of the UK's Cabinet Office supporting the Prime Minister and UK Cabinet will simplify the procurement process for public sector entities giving them greater flexibility and a "menu of options" for a wide range of support services. The Framework will be available to all Central UK Government Departments and their Arm's Length Bodies - UK regulatory agencies operating independently of the UK government - as well as Agencies, Non-Departmental Public Bodies, National Health Service Bodies and Local Authorities.
"At KBR we have a passion to deliver high quality work and are committed to standing by our promises to deliver," said Andrew Pringle, President of Government Services for KBR.
"The selection by CCS to deliver this FM Framework further enhances our position as a leading provider of independent facilities management assurance services. We look forward to working with government agencies in the delivery of this exciting project," continued Pringle.
Andrew Barrie, Head of Government Services for KBR Ltd which provides Program Management Contracting as part of KBR's Government Services group said, "This contract award follows on from the success of our work with the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) to transform its vast estate. In 2013 the MPS chose KBR to integrate the management of their facilities which has delivered significant savings for the force and UK taxpayers."
Continued Barrie: "We are delighted to have been selected by the Crown Commercial Service to continue delivering our expertise in this area. At KBR we pride ourselves on innovation and doing things differently, which is exactly what this Framework seeks to deliver."
The agreement will commence immediately and is scheduled to run for four years.
Revenue associated with this project is estimated to be $23 to $52 million and will be booked into backlog of unfilled orders for KBR's Government Services Business Segment in the third quarter of 2015.
