As energy costs continue to rise rapidly, companies are urged to assess the costs of the energy they use so as to identify opportunities to reduce cos
Midas was recently in discussions with a global financial services company based in London which has a long-term problem of expansion space whilst sub-letting space within its HQ. We advised the company to focus on addressing the underlying issue with their existing property, rather than search for new premises. This meant they needed to first identify whether there were any residual, long-term problems in the property they currently occupy. Unlike many other consultants for whom the key aim is to find a transaction-based solution for clients, Midas looks to implement a strategic approach to property, developing long-term solutions to business concerns, focusing on business improvement not simply property procurement and its relative cost. Midas provides strategic consultancy services for the international IT outsourcer, Fujitsu Europe, and global insurers Marsh and McLennan, identifying the long-term property needs for these businesses. Our Value Release Model involves Midas assisting senior executives and decision-makers in organisations to identify activities where they are effective as well as the non-lucrative markets where an exit strategy will be required. We also help clients to examine alternative procurement methods, such as outsourcing in relation to their long-term strategy and attitude to risk.
