In an effort
to escape the woes of the construction crunch, building
services contractors are increasingly reliant on maintenance
services to sustain the bottom line. For many, planned and
responsive repairs contracts with local authorities, housing
associations and ALMOs are now key and every effort is being
taken to ensure their services are attractive to clients
and tenders are competitive.
Our mobility solutions have a proven
track record of helping contractors deliver successful reactive
maintenance services while streamlining internal processes
and cutting operational costs. The efficiencies, transparency
(helped by the latest in engineer and vehicle tracking)
and reporting have each played their part in making ViXEN
the solution of choice for the likes of Inspace,
SSE Home Services, Integral UK,
J Tomlinsons, Rule & Parker
and hundreds of other small, medium and large contractors.
Will Smith, Managing Director at
fast-growing Surrey-based contractor Smith &
Byford, recognises that "improved efficiency
in paperwork and systems provided by ViXEN have contributed
to steady improvement in our operating profit over the last
3 years". Smith & Byford's forward-thinking
investment in mobility continues to set them apart and has
been key to them winning sizeable contracts, such as a collaborative
with Mears plc for The Royal Borough of Kingston Upon Thames.
The contract is worth approximately £40 million to
Smith & Byford over its full term.
