National building services provider EIC has relocated its Bristol offices in order to support continuing growth and access new markets.

The new offices, located in the Avonmouth area, provide EIC with easy access to the city centre, the M4/M5 motorway network, the Severn Bridge and on into South Wales. The 2,000 sq ft premises, which forms part of EIC’s national network of 13 regional offices, will also allow the company to continue to service key long-term clients in the region, such as North Somerset Council with whom it has a three-year hard services planned and reactive maintenance contract.

EIC will still provide the full range of mechanical, electrical, building fabric and facilities management services for customers across the West, and into South and mid Wales.

Alan Wade, regional director for EIC West, said: “Following a number of recent, significant contract wins, it became clear that we would soon require larger premises if we were to continue to meet the needs of both our customers and employees. We selected the new premises, which are more than 10 times bigger than the previous offices, because the space fulfils out current needs and provides additional space for the future growth that is needed to support our long term business strategy.

“The location is ideal for servicing existing customers in Bristol and Somerset and into South Wales. We will continue to focus on demonstrating to potential customers how working with EIC can help their business, as we work closely with them to understand their specific requirements in order to provide an efficient, specialist, round the clock service.”

EIC has been awarded an £800,000 contract to provide mechanical services to the Guru Nanak Gurdwara
Smethwick Temple in Sandwell, Birmingham. The services will be installed in a £7.5 million community annexe
being constructed. EIC will work in partnership with main contractor Thomas Vale Construction and install the
services in a £7.5 million community annexe. The project will double the size of the four-storey, 78,000 square
metre building, which is one of the oldest Sikh temples in the country. EIC has been awarded a nine-month,
£800,000 contract to design and install the services that include public health services. The building will include
an 800-seat langar – dining hall - a wedding hall, a lecture theatre and classrooms.

EIC have been awarded a National Planned Preventitive Maintenance contract with the National Farmers Union (NFU).

This will be managed out of their Head Office in Alcester. EIC will be working with NFU over the next 12 months to hopefully win several more contracts and build a sustainable relationship that provides best value to the client.
