UK: Glasgow-based BAM FM has been awarded a three-year contract by North Ayrshire Council to maintain and repair heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems.

As part of the contract, BAM will be delivering 24/7/365 planned and reactive mobile maintenance service on HVAC equipment to over 200 sites in North Ayrshire, including on the Isles of Arran and Cumbrae. BAM FM will manage properties such as schools, libraries, community halls and sheltered housing.
