14forty wins £20m National Gas contract

14forty recently won a contract to provide soft and hard services for National Gas, the backbone of Britain’s energy system. The agreement, which begins in September 2023 and covers the company’s entire GB estate, is worth approximately £20m and runs for five years initially with the option for National Gas to extend for a further two.

The Compass subsidiary will provide services including planned preventative maintenance, emergency repair and upgrade work to the estate’s building assets, while also ensuring that legal compliance is maintained and lifecycle planning and energy efficiency are part of future asset strategies. To complement the partnership, 14forty is also implementing a new helpdesk system to manage engineer visits and preventative maintenance schedules across the National Gas estate.

Mauro Ortelli, managing director at 14forty, said: “We’re thrilled to be appointed the integrated facilities management provider for National Gas. It’s the first contract they’ve awarded in this area since their separation from National Grid following a robust and thorough tender process.”

Ian Hollister, occupied estates manager for National Gas, added: “14forty evidenced during the process their ability to support critical infrastructure in complex hard FM services at scale nationally. This, supported by a leading digital platform, will allow us to future-proof our strategy and gives us the confidence they are the right partner for us moving forwards.”
