The Re-tendering Process

In 2024 Prime Facility Services re-tendered for and retained this prestigious contract for all Southern’s 71 properties in the Midlands. Prime were able to demonstrate their expertise, experience and capabilities in:

  • The mobilisation and training of reliable, hardworking, DBS checked staff
  • The delivery of a consistent service
  • Meeting a wide range of customer needs
  • Collecting and sharing feedback
  • Working safely, especially at high levels
  • Minimising environmental impact

“After a long and detailed tendering process we are delighted to have retained this contract which is a testimony to the hard work and dedication of all my staff who work on this account.” ~ David Edwards, CEO of Prime Facility Services
