Sodexo wins five-year HMRC contract

Sodexo has won a five-year the integrated workplace services contract with HM Revenue & Customs covering 24 sites across the western part of the UK.

The contract, which has an option to extend for a further five years, will commence on 1 May 2025.

Sodexo has held the facilities management contract for HMRC’s central and southern regions since 2019, and takes the new contract as the government agency restructures into two regions.

The new contract will see Sodexo retain 19 sites and add additional five sites in Belfast, East Kilbride and Glasgow.

The services it will provide include building maintenance, minor works, catering, cleaning, landscaping, pest control and waste management. 

Sodexo’s Kitchen Works concept will be delivered at regional centres in Cardiff, Glasgow, Bristol, Birmingham, Liverpool and Manchester, in addition to East Kilbride Tax Office, and will offer HMRC employees a blend of cafés and micro-markets as well as smart and traditional vending services enabled by digital solutions. 

Paul Anstey, chief executive of government at Sodexo UK & Ireland, said: “We are absolutely delighted to continue our strategic relationship with HMRC.

"We are committed to supporting HMRC’s wider transformation and ambition to be a great place to work and will do all that we can to ensure everyone experiences the best possible service from Sodexo colleagues.

“Working together with both HMRC and the wider supply chain we will focus on continually improving and adding value for our client.”
