The public sector budget was always going to be under the spot light no matter what government was elected. Consequently one area that is likely to be effected is our public parks and street landscaping budgets as this is generally an easy target for most financial directors. However, all is not lost as I have been impressed how some of the UK's biggest facility management companies like Carillion, Balfour Beattie and Mitie are driving value from public and private sector facility budgets without any serious effect on quality. Using the same approach as these facility management companies, we have developed a best practice cost down approach to maintaining public parks, street landscaping, highway landscaping, private landscaping and garden maintenance. If you would like to know how we can better manage your landscaping budgets, please call us on 0800 028 4164.
