The implementation team for the trust said: “We are delighted to welcome ISS back into the Trust. ISS won a competitive tender process run through the London Procurement Partnership framework agreement for Soft Facilities Management Services. Since working with ISS through the implementation we have found them responsive and helpful at all times, they understand the challenges of a Mental Health Trust and we look forward to working with them to help us continue to focus on the wellbeing of our service users.”
