Balfour Beatty’s internal Plant & Fleet Services provider has signed an exclusive three-year industry leading deal with A-Plant, Speedy Hire, Nationwide Platforms and VP.

The partnership will deliver a lean and efficient plant hire service into the Balfour Beatty Group throughout the UK.

The deal is part of a new and efficient way of working which sees Balfour Beatty’s new partners delivering every day plant services to its UK operations.

This new approach to plant hire is being managed from a new integrated and co-located Centre of Excellence in Sheffield, where the collaborative team will work together to deliver a new level of plant excellence.

Andy Ormerod, MD, Balfour Beatty Plant & Fleet Services, said: “This is an exciting new development for Balfour Beatty. By working in close partnership with these industry leading providers of plant and equipment, Balfour Beatty will experience a step change in service. Reducing waste and maximising efficiency through innovation and best practice will unlock value for ourselves and our UK customers.”
