The Challenge
The Client organisation had formed a joint venture with a leading independent property investment company to develop the R&D Centre into a Science Park cluster of critical mass and excellence. The Clients property and facilities services organisation needed to change from a corporately owned/managed facility to a commercially structured science park with multiple tenants, whilst simultaneously outsourcing the provision of services.
PaCS were commissioned to develop a robust and sustainable strategy that would analyse the opportunities, risks and issues associated with the proposed outsourcing.

The Value and Benefits to the Client
This project provided the client with a comprehensive strategy that gave a clear understanding of the opportunities and issues associated with the proposed changes and the best way to harness the outsourcing for the advantage of the business.
