October 2, 2002—ARCADIS, a provider of infrastructure, buildings and environmental services, and Aqumen, one of the UK’s leading suppliers of facilities management and support services, are joining forces to create a new joint venture, ARCADIS AQUMEN FM.
Based at Arnhem in Holland, ARCADIS AQUMEN FM will initially operate in the Netherlands, delivering a total facility management solution for its clients, says the company.
ARCADIS AQUMEN FM’s principal offering will enable clients to enhance their performance and reduce costs—most notably in their non-core property holdings—through partnership. The new company will particularly address the needs of firms seeking transnational facilities management solutions.
ARCADIS AQUMEN FM offers a range of delivery options: Total Facility Management, whereby ARCADIS AQUMEN FM contracts directly with the client to deliver a comprehensive range of services; Managing Agent, in which some or all of the client’s existing service providers are managed; Partnering, where ARCADIS AQUMEN FM provides its own managers at various levels within the client’s FM structure; and Consultancy, on a short or long-term basis.
