Cordant remains on board with Stagecoach

Cordant Cleaning, part of Cordant Group, has secured a significant contract renewal with bus operator Stagecoach to provide cleaning, shunting and fuelling services at 10 depots across London.

The new deal will also incorporate an eleventh depot in Guilford, which means that Cordant will branch out of London into a new regional operating company; Stagecoach South.

Since 2010, Cordant has delivered an extensive range of solutions at the 10 depots – Barking, Bow, Bromley, Catford, Kangley Bridge Road, Leyton, Plumstead, Rainham, Romford & West Ham. This includes vehicle cleaning and shunting, engineering and admin premises cleaning, plus fuelling, oiling and fluid level checks and changes.

As a result of the updated agreement, the Guilford-based personnel will successfully transfer to Cordant under TUPE, which will bring the total number of staff working on the contract to over 250. By adding an eleventh depot, the latest deal now covers in excess of 1,300 vehicles.

Chris Remnant, Engineering Director at Stagecoach, said: “Over the last nine years Cordant Cleaning has continuously improved and developed its service offering to meet our evolving requirements. This is a long-standing relationship built on trust and like-minded values, and we are excited to extend the partnership.”
