ARCADIS TO DO FACILITY MANAGEMENT FOR NXP SEMICONDUCTORS
ARNHEM, THE NETHERLANDS — September, 27, 2007 — ARCADIS (EURONEXT: ARCAD), the international consulting and engineering company, announced today that ARCADIS AQUMEN Facility Management (AAFM) has been selected to perform facility management services for NXP Semiconductors. The contract with a term of at least three years comprises all activities and all sites of NXP Semiconductors. The estimated value of the contract is EUR 10 million per year. Further financial details have not been disclosed.
AAFM will manage the facility services for NXP Semiconductors including the management of the building maintenance, catering, logistics and cleaning. The facility managers of NXP had already joined AAFM in 2006. The new contract is a continuation of the activities which AAFM performed for Philips.
“This contract underlines that also for a company like NXP Semiconductors, outsourcing of facility management is an attractive option,” says ARCADIS board member Michiel Jaski. “The management model that we use allows us to operate independently and to realize considerable cost savings while at the same time increasing the quality of the service level and the flexibility for these services. We are pleased that NXP Semiconductors, also based on recent experience, has elected to continue its relationship with AAFM.”
ARCADIS is an international company providing consultancy, engineering and management services in infrastructure, environment and facilities, to enhance mobility, sustainability and quality of life. ARCADIS develops, designs, implements, maintains and operates projects for companies and governments. With more than 12,000 employees and $1.9 billion in gross revenue, the company has an extensive international network that is supported by strong local market positions.
