Hills Electrical and Mechanical plc and Hills Integrated Systems have completed the £1.3 million installation of electrical services at Manchester University's new School of Music and drama.
"We are delighted by this new agreement.
It adds to our current alliance with BAA, allowing us to work on individual projects up to £2m," says Hills' National FM Executive Roy Carter.
"We believe that by doing this BAA has strengthened its supply chain by upgrading to a company known and trusted by them, with nine years of airport experience, and who will, as always, continue to deliver a first class product." Hills was originally awarded a five year BAA framework agreement when the airport operator took the innovative step of moving from competitive tender to long term partnering back in 1996.
Hills was then given responsibility for internal maintenance and small works valued up to £100,000 - this limit was subsequently increased to £250,000 and the contract extended to cover relamping at Gatwick airport.
Hills will be taking on additional directly employed staff at Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted to carry out the maintenance and project work.
