Expansion of Novartis Partnership

ISS has agreed with global pharmaceutical company, Novartis, to significantly expand their partnership to cover all sites across 24 countries in Europe. Furthermore, the contract has been extended to run for an additional two years until 2019 and the contract scope in existing countries has been expanded.
Transition is in progress in a number of countries, and once the expanded contract is fully mobilised during H1 2016, the number of employees servicing Novartis will increase from approximately 1,200 to more than 1,500.
"We are delighted and very proud of this expansion and extension. It is a clear testament to the strength of our integrated service offering, to the skills of our employees, and to the level of trust and partnership we have built with our customer. Everyone at ISS involved in the partnership will do their utmost to ensure that we exceed the expectations," said Andrew Price, Chief Commercial Officer of ISS A/S.
ISS started servicing Novartis in 2012 and has expanded the contract scope in 2013, in 2014, and again in 2015. ISS provides the pharmaceutical company with a full Integrated Facility Services solution, including food services (catering), cleaning, reception services, grounds maintenance, technical services, site security, space planning and project management.
