26/1/2006 09:30 | Metropolitan Police Authority and Atkins sign innovative asset management contract 17 January 2006 The Metropolitan Police Authority (MPA) has today awarded Atkins a ground-breaking £15.4 million contract to support the facilities management of its diverse estate of more than 1,700 London properties. Atkins Asset Management will develop a Facilities Management Information Centre (FMIC), which will deliver a range of cutting-edge services to support a performance and information-led approach to facilities management of the MPA's properties. This innovative approach will enable the MPA to better allocate its £70 million annual facilities management spend, driving value across the estate. The FMIC's services will include: An intelligent help desk and contact centre; Supporting disaster and contingency planning information and activities across the wider FM supply chain; Information and performance management services; and Services relating to the coordination of project information across the FM supply chain. Atkins' selection follows a robust and competitive process, with the MPA thoroughly testing Atkins systems, processes, people and expertise. Following implementation in 2006, the FMIC contract is for five years, with potential for a further five-year extension. The contract marks a step change in the way the MPA approaches the delivery of FM services across its £1.7bn estate, which encompasses a huge range of properties, including police stations, training establishments, HQ offices, residential, workshops and specialist properties across London. The FMIC's services will also provide information and services to support the delivery of the MPA estate strategy, "Building Towards the Safest City". This seeks to achieve greater alignment between property assets and the needs of front line policing. Over 60% of the total estate is being refreshed over the next five to 10 years. Alan Croney, Director of Property Services for the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS), said: "The strategy we have developed for our FM services is designed to place us at the leading edge of practise in facilities management. My team and I are looking forward to working closely with Atkins to deliver this strategy and provide an FM service that is robust and performance and information focused, enabling us to be more proactive and customer focused." Sean Haley, Atkins Asset Management Managing Director said: "We are delighted to have won this contract, which is all the more significant because we believe the model adopted by the MPA is a reflection of how the market will continue to develop in the future". "The FMIC approach will make the most of cutting edge systems and processes to deliver a stronger understanding of the day-to-day dynamics of the operation of each building across the entire MPA estate. This will enable the MPA to plan more effectively and aid the long-term strategic management of this significant estate." | powerbooks | |
26/1/2006 09:29 | Atkins awards further FRES technology demonstrator contracts for MOD programme 04 January 2006 Atkins has awarded four more technology demonstrator programme (TDP) contracts for the MOD's Future Rapid Effect System (FRES). FRES is the largest land systems programme ever undertaken in the UK. The FRES capability will be delivered through provision of the next generation of medium-weight armoured vehicles that will be part of an interoperable network. Atkins was appointed last year as an independent systems house to work under MoD¿s strategic direction to define the FRES requirements, contribute to the acquisition strategy and reduce and manage risk through technology demonstrator programmes. The four contracts have been awarded to: BAE Systems (Land Systems). The Chassis Concept TDP will assess the mobility and reliability performance of a tracked electric drive chassis concept to understand and demonstrate the maturity of the technology and its integration challenges. BAE Systems (Land Systems (Bridging)). The Gap Crossing TDP will focus on a new light-weight assault bridge based on 2 designs; a stretched version of current technology and a new design using hybrid materials. Both designs aim to provide better bridge packaging for air transportability together with fast under-armour deployment, recovery and re-deployment. Lockheed Martin UK INSYS. The Electric Armour TDP will look at the maturity of electric armour technology, defining and assessing constraints and determining the principles for integration of Electric Armour into FRES should it prove to be sufficiently mature. Thales UK. The Integrated Survivability TDP will assess the appropriate balance of survivability technologies matched to the needs and constraints of the various FRES roles. Chris Kenchington, the Atkins Director responsible for managing the FRES Integrated Technology Acquisition Programme, said: "The award of these contracts represents a significant step forward for the FRES programme. We are delighted to have agreed these contracts with BAE Systems, Lockheed Martin INSYS and Thales, and look forward to working in partnership with them and their teams to mature technology readiness and reduce risk." Atkins has previously awarded three TDP contracts, one for a Chassis Concept to General Dynamics, and two Electronic Architecture contracts to Lockheed Martin and Thales. | powerbooks | |
26/1/2006 09:27 | Atkins wins Scottish dams contract 17 January 2006 Atkins has been appointed by Scottish & Southern Energy to ensure two major UK dams Pitlochry Dam and Clunie Dam - meet current reservoir design standards. Pitlochry Dam, where Atkins' Dams and Reservoirs team will be engaged in designing, planning and eventually supervising works, is not only very important to Scottish & Southern Energy it is also popular with members of the public, who visit to watch salmon manoeuvring up the fish ladder. To meet existing safety standards, it is necessary to raise the 'cut offs' on both sides of this 60-year-old dam to prevent water flowing around each side of the structure. Having carried out part of the design work, Atkins is now assisting with the planning application and public consultation, before supervising the works, which are scheduled for next winter. Atkins is also undertaking work on the Clunie Dam, a 30m-high concrete gravity dam, which was built in the 1950s and is situated to the north of Pitlochry. Its team has been commissioned to undertake the design and supervision of a site investigation contract. Once this investigation is complete, Atkins will work closely with a contractor to design and supervise the installation of ground anchors to stabilise the structure. These projects benefit from the multi-disciplinary expertise found within Atkins, using a variety of experts from geotechnical engineers to reservoir inspectors from a variety of offices including Epsom and Scotland. Andy Hughes, director of the Dams & Reservoirs Business at Atkins, says: "We are delighted to have won this work with Scottish & Southern Energy, a valued client which has a high degree of in-house expertise and which values its assets and maintains them to a very high standard. "This work is part of its programme to ensure its dams meet current safety standards, and also ensures public safety is maintained." | powerbooks | |

25/1/2006 08:47 | Pomp - Agree it cant hurt and it certainly sounds like it should have a material financial impact but the actual amount is obviously difficult to quantify (especially as we are talking about a JV). Also, I suspect that this news was expected - I think it was rumoured that the consortium would win for some time. I also believe the same consortium is doing the same sort of thing in Beijing (and they may have been involved in Athens) so you might turn this on its head and say that ATK needs to keep winning these type of contracts in order to sustain its share price. All that said, it underpins my view that this is essentially an excellent safe long term play - which is growing too. Keep adding (particularly on dips) is my investment strategy. | judge jury | |
25/1/2006 08:40 | http://www.atkinsglo Top team chosen to design Olympic park 24 January 2006 David Higgins, chief executive-designate of the Olympic Delivery Authority, today announced the winning team chosen to design the Olympic Park and its associated infrastructure. The announcement was made at today's inaugural 2012 Business Summit, organised by the Department of Culture, Media and Sport at Cabot Hall, Canary Wharf. The team, chosen through a competitive tendering process, brings to the project an outstanding range of talent in areas including architecture, landscape design and engineering. They will play a key role in turning London's Olympic vision into reality, as well as setting the framework for the regeneration of the Lower Lea Valley in East London. The EDAW consortium, together with Arup and Atkins will form an integrated team to develop the design. The EDAW consortium, which produced the award-winning masterplan that helped London win the 2012 Olympic Games and Paralympic Games, comprises: EDAW PLC, Buro Happold, Foreign Office Architects, HOK Sport, and Allies & Morrison. The team, led by Jason Prior, Principal of EDAW, will work with the Interim Olympic Delivery Authority to further develop the Olympic Park masterplan and begin to design all the infrastructure elements that will make up the Park including utilities, waterways, drainage, landscape, roads and bridges. The plans currently have outline planning permission, granted on 1 October 2004, and further detailed planning applications will be required. The team will not design the Olympic venues or Athletes' Village, which will be tendered separately. David Higgins, Chief executive-designate of the Olympic Delivery Authority, said: 'I am delighted to announce this appointment. I've only been in post a short time and I appreciate the work of the Interim ODA and London Development Agency team that managed the appointment process. It means I can get to grips with the critical priorities straight away. 'Getting the site infrastructure and landscape right is a key task for the Olympic Delivery Authority over the next two years. It is not only critical for the Games but also to frame one of the most significant regeneration legacies for a generation. 'This will create a major new Park for London that after the Games will become a new quarter of the capital for Londoners to live, work and play.' Jason Prior, Principal, EDAW, said: 'The plans that we worked so hard to put together for the bid are now going to be taken forward. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for any landscape architect and I am absolutely thrilled.' Sebastian Coe, Chairman of the London Organising Committee of the Olympic Games (LOCOG) said: "This is an exciting announcement and I look forward to working with the EDAW consortium. This project, which demonstrates that we are on course with the delivery of our plans, is all about creating an attractive environment for the centrepiece of the Games, which will be fully accessible for the community of East London for generations to come." Mayor of London, Ken Livingstone, said: 'One of the main reasons I backed London's bid for the Games was because of the enormous regeneration and legacy it will bring to London. The EDAW team that did such a fantastic job during the bid will also bring truly world-class design to the Lower Lea Valley that will inspire the wider development of East London. This appointment is critical in helping us shape the long-term legacy of the London Games.' Olympics Minister Tessa Jowell said: '200 days on from Singapore and again we are delivering. This contract is a vital part of the planning of the Olympic Park and I look forward to seeing the innovative designs and engineering concepts from EDAW and their partners. The Games are already starting to become a reality.' | powerbooks | |
