About Us
Interserve is one of the world’s foremost support services and construction companies, operating in the public and private sectors in the UK and internationally. We offer advice, design, construction and facilities management services for society's infrastructure and provide a range of plant and equipment in specialist fields. Interserve is based in the UK. It has revenue of £1.9 billion and a workforce of 50,000 people worldwide.
We work in and around many types of buildings and infrastructure such as hospitals, schools, offices, shopping centres, airports, prisons, industrial plant, bridges, waterworks and roads, offering consultancy and services across the asset life cycle: planning, building, supporting our clients' operations and maintaining the buildings and environments in which they work.
A common theme is that we manage complex environments to enable our clients' businesses to run more effectively. The core competencies that enable us to excel in this are:
- Service integration
- Direct delivery and supply chain management
- Productivity improvement
- Development of long-term working relationships
- Driving and managing change
Increasingly our customers wish to buy more services from fewer suppliers. With our breadth of skills and services, we are able to respond to that customer need and to deliver a "one-stop-shop", integrated service. Private Finance Initiative (PFI) projects are an excellent example, where, in addition to advising, planning, managing and delivering services, we can facilitate the project through direct investment.
Our strategy
Interserve’s vision is to be The Trusted Partner, bringing together all of our outsourcing capabilities to create innovative solutions that support long-term relationships with our customers, offering rewarding careers for our staff and underpinning sustained value creation for shareholders. Our strategy for fulfilling this vision consists of three core elements:
- Build strong core businesses based on long-term, value-added client relationships
- Capture emerging opportunities for integrated solutions
- Expand international growth with fuller service offering
Given that our core skills and capabilities are transferable across sectors and geographies, we expect more examples of such strategic developments to arise, underpinning our confidence in the Group's future.
