Such a shame - i worked there for 8 years and had alot of great times they were a good company to work for, as for OCS buying them (Office Cleaning Services) do you really imagine them undertaling a utility contract etc. Lets hope something positive comes out of it

What will happen now to all the contractors still awaiting the money owed from fountains from the UKPN contract???

 

Not only the UKPN contract, but everywhere else too. I'm aware of many companies that are owed several tens of thousands of pounds. Why such debts are allowed to accrue is beyond me.

Don't let the name fool you, OCS is'nt a bunch of old women in pinny's carrying mops and buckets, come to empty your office bin and sluice down the urinals!

 

OCS is a multinational Facilities Management, with over 50,000 staff operating across five continents.

 

Reading the press release on the Fountains website, it would appear that the part of the business they have bought does include some of the staff that was working for Fountains. So presumably it will be the same Fountains people as OCS people undertaking the utility contract and not Mrs' Miggins's mop & bucket brigade.
