Leading workplace services provider Sodexo Ireland has announced a new FM alliance with Sensori Facilities Management to help clients achieve flexible and balanced working
As organisations redesign their workplaces for the future, Sodexo‘s new FM alliance continues to build its Vital Spaces proposition.
Sodexo’s Vital Spaces combines a full suite of workplace and employee-focused services, such as workplace consultancy, workplace design, workplace management, worklife services and workplace technology and analytics.
Combining Sodexo and Sensori’s existing expertise
The new FM alliance utilises Sodexo’s expertise in workplace transformation and Sensori FM’s expertise in digital intelligent building solutions. It is hoped that the new FM alliance will therefore appeal to companies seeking a single point of contact which possesses the necessary design and creation expertise for flexible, sustainable workplaces.
The new FM alliance also means that clients can:
- reap the benefits of real time data analytics
- remote monitoring of assets
- predictive maintenance
- workspace and seating usage analytics
- air quality, occupancy and health and safety analytics
Sustainability and decarbonisation is now a priority for 73% of businesses and employees
Research by the IFMA (International Facility Management Association) points out that sustainability and the decarbonisation of buildings are now key objectives for all businesses. Precisely, 73% of business leaders state that existing and potential employees are increasingly scrutinising sustainability policies and want further climate-positive action.
The new FM alliance will address this by collaborating with clients on the creation of strategies to enhance sustainability roadmaps. This means reducing the consumption of energy and water by companies. To achieve this, Sodexo and Sensori will include detailed energy audits, costings and design solutions, to ensure buildings and assets perform at their optimum level of efficiency with visibility of real time digital interface reports.
Office space management is essential to flexible working
David Fox, managing director, Sodexo Ireland, said:
“The management of office space is central to a balanced flexible working strategy and organisations will continue to optimise technology to bridge digital and physical worlds, with a core focus on employee and environmental wellbeing.
“Our relationship with Sensori FM brings a single point of contact for organisations embarking on new workplace transformation programmes, from the initial consultation right through to the implementation of next generation FM solutions. We are with our clients every step on the journey towards optimising their business workplace.”
Mark Cullen, managing director, Sensori Facilities Management, added:
“Sensori is at the forefront of delivering high performance buildings and we are delighted to be partnering with Sodexo, creating innovative and bespoke solutions that support its key pillars of Vital Spaces.
“There is a strong alignment of company culture and core values across our two businesses. Now operating as an integrated team, we are looking forward to offering a wider scope of services to both existing and new clients.”
