Relocation and modernisation of the £385 billion* public sector
estate is a key item on the government agenda. Every property
in the government estate from schools to police stations are bound
by the terms of the operational efficiency programme, the
largest-ever cost cutting programme within the public sector.
Estate managers are coming under increased pressure to ensure that
buildings are energy efficient and service providers, from
telephone and IT networks to general maintenance, are giving the
best value for money.
Taking place in London on the 23-24 November Public Property Expo
will be the first ever national EXPO dedicated to the UK Public
Sector Property community examing the present challenges and future
solutions to the Government estate.
Whitehall property specialist Governetz has partnered with event
organisers, Brintex, and their sister company, Hemming Information
Services, publishers of the MJ, Local Government News,
localgov.co.uk, Surveyor and the Municipal Year Book to establish
this new events portfolio aimed to inform and stimulate debate
around driving forward efficiency savings in public sector
property.
In addition to the annual conference and exhibition, we maintain a
dedicated programme of regional road shows and round table debates
for public sector estate managers examining everything from FM
procurement and asset sweating to the role that regeneration can
play in joining up the sustainability agenda.
