"Securing all new work is time to take stock of our success, to acknowledge the standards of service we provide and this is never more the case than when we secure a contract renewal. The work delivered on behalf of Mott MacDonald to-date has enhanced the company's nationwide operations and we look forward to building on this fantastic work in the coming years."

Wates FM currently manages over 350 commercial properties, delivering services including statutory compliance, cleaning, security, catering, porterage, front-of-house, help desks and computer-aided facilities management (CAFM), as well as mechanical and electrical and building fabric maintenance through a mix of site based and mobile teams.
