Dubai, UAE, 11 February, 2014

COFELY BESIX Facility Management, the region's leading facilities management company, has launched the industry's first fully responsive website.

The new site, www.cofely-besix.com, works across all smartphones and tablets, meaning mobile users enjoy exactly the same experience as those using PCs.

"COFELY BESIX is at the cutting edge of facilities management, so we needed a website to match," said Ian Harfield, General Manager of COFELY BESIX Facility Management.

"Due to the multi-faceted nature of our services, we needed a website that could clearly convey our services, without being too complicated and technical. The new site offers a very simple solution to communicating our services and relevant news to our clients and anyone interested in finding out more about what we do and how we do it. The fact that users are able to read our site easily on any of their mobile devices, without having to scroll around and cause frustration, is also very important to us."

The site also includes regular content updates highlighting all the latest COFELY BESIX Facility Management news and sends regular updates to mailing lists, so users can stay up to date with all company news.

COFELY BESIX Facility Management delivers an integrated service, which provides not only a single point of contact for a range of services, but also the ability to supply them to multiple sites and on technically challenging buildings.

 "The new site has a great design that is on brand and showcases the many skills of COFELY BESIX Facility Management in easy-to-navigate sections," explained Jamie Sergeant, Owner of Crowd, a UK-based digital agency.

"Additionally, the new web-site is the first in a series of sites that will highlight the many business sectors Cofely Besix services, including a host of case studies to highlight the level of services that Cofely Besix provides in a clear and well-written and concise style. This is just the start of the ongoing web support that Crowd will be providing," added Sergeant.

COFELY BESIX Facility Management was founded in 2008 as a joint venture between Cofely Services GDF Suez and the Besix Group. Headquartered in Dubai and with operations across the Middle East, it provides a full range of facilities management services to single and multi-site portfolios of all sizes.

About COFELY BESIX Facilities Management
COFELY BESIX Facility Management LLC is a joint-venture established in 2008 by COFELY Services and the BESIX Group, to provide first-class integrated facility management services in the Middle East.

Cofely Services is part of GDF SUEZ Energy Services, the European leader in multi-technical services, which has a turnover of €1.2 billion in 2011 and 77,200 employees. GDF SUEZ Energy Services is one of the business lines of GDF SUEZ, one of the world's leading energy providers.

The Besix Group, active for more than 40 years in the Middle East, has a wide range of experience of real estate and infrastructure construction.

The strengths of these two companies were combined in order to deliver the most critical part of facility management - the maintenance of technical installations and energy management.

We offer a complete range of maintenance, cleaning, management solutions and essential multi-disciplinary trades, supported via a 24/7 call centre, to every industry sector, from residential and commercial to educational and airports. Clients include The Burj Khalifa Tower and 8 Boulevard Walk in Dubai, almost 100 Musanada schools in Abu Dhabi and Al Ain, and Al Gurm Resort and Al Raha Gardens in Abu Dhabi.

COFELY BESIX Facility Management can source, procure and manage specialist services to suit all clients' requirements. The company provides mechanical and electrical maintenance services, including the delivery of both planned and emergency and reactive maintenance.

The team also has extensive experience of monitoring and managing utilities and waste services combined with the implementation of sustainability initiatives.

COFELY BESIX facility management delivers an Integrated Facility Management Model which provides the ability to offer multiple services on multiple sites, all through a single point of contact. That means that the supply chain is simplified and costs are lowered.

Staff are encouraged to take ownership of the entire service rather than just an individual service line, resulting in better service and fewer callouts from customers. For example security guards routinely conduct cleanlinesss audits during their patrols and alert cleaning staff where needed.
