That’s a great culture to have and allows us to promote from within. We’re a lean team of professionals – each and every one specialises in their field and is very capable of working in isolation as well as working in a team.” On the facilities management side of CPS, one individual facility manager can manage multiple sites and multiple contractors because all the verticals and all relevant systems are in place to do it very cost effectively and efficiently. A lot of decisions can be made by facilities managers, or one level up by a property manager, or the next level up to an asset manager, before it has to go to the board. Moodie notes, “In the case of an emergency, or an unexpected event in the middle of the night, for example, you need to be able to mobilise and find services quickly. Our facilities managers are only one phone call away from a contractor to deal with the issue. We’re a small team but it’s also easy for us to expand as the need requires.” CPS takes pride in using their in-depth expertise to mentor and educate clients on best value for their ownership and/or tenancy. The company’s strong, long-term alliances with a trusted network of preferred consultants, builders, sub-contractors and suppliers means they can procure services quicker and with trusted certainty on the quality of services that will be provided. The value add to their clients is the assurance of an expertly and cost-effectively managed asset.
