Vertas and Imtech agree £30M ME&E contract

Vertas has awarded Imtech Inviron a £30 million Mechanical, Engineering and Electrical (ME&E) contract for five years for work across its client base, which includes the Suffolk County Council estate, after a competitive tender. Mobilisation began in July with the contract commencing in September.

The five-year deal, worth around £6 million per annum, covers a broad range of ME&E responsibilities from boiler servicing to providing expert solutions around heat and power such as renewable energy works, including micro-generation renewable technologies, biomass boilers or photovoltaic solutions.

Alongside this will be emergency, responsive and planned property maintenance services. This includes mechanical and electrical test and inspections as well as most other typical property maintenance needs e.g. building management systems, lifts, security systems, plumbing and heating repairs.

Ian Surtees, MBA, chief executive officer of Vertas said,

“We have worked with Imtech since 2003 and have established a strong relationship built on mutual values. Partnering with Imtech means we can offer a one-provider total facilities management solution to our clients. It also offers growth opportunities for both businesses as we support each other’s clients. I’m looking forward to a successful partnership.”

Noel Clancy, managing director of Imtech Inviron said,

“We are delighted to be substantially growing the scope on this strategically important contract. I believe the technical ability and agility of our frontline teams together with the stability and innovation that our parent EDF Energy Services bring to the table, was a key differentiator. We are looking forward to working closely with Vertas over the coming years.”
