Running global operations requires an extensive and experienced team, which can become expensive. But is that the most profitable way to work? In short, the answer is no, it isn't. That's why global brands connect and work with trusted business service providers in each country of operations.
In this case study, we want to take you through how mselect provided Integrated Facility Management services, part of our business Service offering, to solve that issue for our global client, Huawei.
How mselect solved Huawei's Integrated Facilities Management problem
In a previous mselect / Huawei case study, you will remember we were able to facilitate fleet and driver services to critical staff and c-suite employees across Iraq, a new base of operations. Considering our long business relationship, reputation, and strong local on-the-ground experience, it was natural for Huawei to consider us for further business services.
The mandate
To provide an ongoing Integrated Facilities Management business service that comprises of:
Procurement for offices and office consumable supplies
Logistical services
Landscape management
Waste management
Security for all Huawei facilities
Staff sourcing and management, including immigration administration and payroll
Quarterly pest control
Quarterly water testing for drinking and shower water
Preventative maintenance
And Facility Management reporting
Vendor and third-party payments
Additional services for Huawei include vendor and third-party payments. We mention this separately, as some companies prefer to handle these payments internally. Given our existing payroll service provision for Huawei's drivers and the complexity of Iraqi pay governance and administration, handling payments for Facility Management services was a more effective solution (and something we strongly recommend for those planning to expand to Iraq).
The results
We hired account managers for each office location to ensure Huawei received the best Integrated Facilities Management from mselect. Having teams on the ground allowed us to understand the complexity of each area, carry out routine inspections and ensure workspace and staff safety compliance to the highest standard.
Having spent over a decade building local teams also gave us an advantage when sourcing new staff and vendor contracts, meaning our service could be up and running quickly.
As a result of choosing mselect to provide their Integrated Facilities Management, Huawei was able to minimise risks, introduce processes that enhance their workplace productivity, and still consider profit.
