CORPS SECURITY has won a new security contract with UK insurance composite the National Farmers Union Mutual Insurance Society Limited (NFU Mutual). The contract began last month, with Corps Security working on over 30 of NFU Mutual’s sites across the nation.
In practice, Corps Security provides a fully integrated security solution for NFU Mutual. This includes Front of House security personnel complete with customer-facing security guarding, remote monitoring services through Corps Monitoring and also security maintenance across NFU Mutual’s estate.
Following on from a competitive tendering process, NFU Mutual selected Corps Security due to both organisations’ keen focus on social value and the well-beingof employees.
NFU Mutual chose to work with Corps Security as part of Social Enterprise UK’s ‘Buy Social Corporate Challenge’, which helps large businesses work with innovative suppliers to embed sustainability within core operations.
As part of both organisations’ social value commitments, a portion of the revenue generated from the new contract is going direct to veteran’s support charity Combat Stress, the charity for veterans’ mental health.
Retaining officers
Andrew Malone, technical services lead for facilities at NFU Mutual, explained: “From the initial conversations we had with Corps Security, it was clear that the company’s approach to delivering excellence in security services through its people makes it stand out from the peer group.”
Malone continued: “The business has conducted itself in an exemplary manner since we made the decision to partner, resulting in one of our main objectives which was to retain the employment of the officers who already work on our sites. We’re looking forward to working with Corps Security in order to further enhance the service we offer the business.”
Andrew Topp, sales and marketing director at Corps Security, observed: “Our work with NFU Mutual is incredibly exciting as it allows us to combine our expert services on one account. At Corps Security, we’re proud to deliver security solutions with social value. We’re delighted to form a fulfilling partnership with NFU Mutual. One which not only protects its people and assets, but also empowers us to collectively ‘do the right thing’ by supporting our social mission via a fully integrated security solution.”
