"At
Trigon, we perfected the processes by which we add value and innovation
to our customer's workplaces," said Richard Buckley, MD, European
Facilities Management at Trammell Crow Savills, "We now have the
global reach and spectrum of services to deploy our expertise to the benefit
of a much wider range of international organisations."
"We look forward to building on our partnerships of progress with
our existing customer base worldwide and building an outstanding European
business for the future," added Andrew Burt, MD, European Corporate
Services. "Our success will be defined by the value we create for
our clients."
Trammell Crow Savills has already moved to meet demand for integrated
services in one of the fastest growing sectors of the economy. A new Technology
Media Telecoms division, headed by Mark Peach, offers non-core support
services and property transactions and already counts Cisco, Unisys, Advantag-e,
Getronics and City Reach International among its clients.
