Carillion sells contracts.



The same 10 or so FM companies just pass around the big contracts to grow their revenues then realise what was sold cannot be delivered for the price then fire fight for 1-3 years . Not sure what the answer is, reign in the sales peopke :)
 
We done a credit check on them last week. Gone from £1.7m to £0 for our account. Can’t even get insurance on future invoices.

We're working on a tender for some construction work with them, they tried to sneak in a deed of novation that would have changed the terms on our existing O&M contracts from 30 days to 126 days :lol:

Still had to tell our sales team in large, bold text not to sign it :neutral:

We are hoping if they do go bust (hope not like), the prison works departments get took back under government control. Apparently Amey want out of the sector as well.

It’s certainly shite compared to when it was in house.

I wasnt there then, its not just the processes that they have in place, its the attitude of the workforce, 70% of them are just unhelpful, and sometimes even obstructive, part of the problem is that the hierarchy at the prison are as weak as piss and dont do anything about it
