"WMS was formed from a management buy-out of the former Westcountry branches of Erinaceous PLC in October 2007.
The buy-out team commenced trading the following month having secured the goodwill of many known contacts and influential Public Sector organisations here in Devon & Cornwall and having successfully procured a delivery team with a wealth of experience far beyond that which may be expected from a new company in the Property Maintenance sector.
As a consequence of that Client goodwill; the employment of a highly capable team, and having gained a reputation for continuously striving to attain 100% results in our contract delivery, WMS has developed rapidly to become the leading provider of Property Maintenance services in the South-West.
Our mission is not to be the largest organisation in our sector, it is to be the Number One in retaining the most enviable reputation for delivering contractual standards, and absolute Customer Satisfaction. The objective of which, is to create a stable and profitable future for all our employees, and provide our clients with a committed and efficient Partner in the delivery of their Programmes of Work.
Michael Sussex, Managing Director
WMS are delighted to advise existing and prospective new clients that it has achieved 'GOLD' accreditation with EXOR Management Services, at the first attempt.
Managing Director Michael Sussex states: "We first considered applying for the Bronze standard as part of our objective to comply with criteria set by Devon County Council, and to strengthen our premier position within the Property Maintenance sector. We quickly realised however, that the 'GOLD' standard was well within our capability and had the potential to open up access to additional new clients who subscribe to the Exor Service. We believe our success is yet another demonstration of our ability to deliver large scale, long-term projects to the very best standards."
"The Exor GOLD accreditation adds to a lengthening list of Industry Accreditations and Recognitions attained by WMS for its provision of Property Maintenance Services. We are pleased to be part of the Exor Management Services network of Approved Contractors, and look forward to being of service to their clients" added Operations Manager Andy Powell.
Following an extensive Pre-Qualification and Tendering process, WMS are delighted to announce that we have been accepted onto Sanctuary-Shaftsbury Housing Association's Framework Agreement for the delivery of Reactive Repairs and Void Preparation Works across the South-West.
The geographical spread of the works fits perfectly with the WMS operational area. The contract will be serviced by all three company offices, with Torrington's Minor Works and Reactive Maintenance Delivery Team co-ordinating the works.
WMS have been awarded thier first contract for the installation of PV Panels.
The company obtained a position as an Installation Contractor to the Alliance Homes Framework Agreement for the delivery of PV Panels to approximately 1200+ homes in North Somerset. This contract is using the highly successful LCX Solar package featuring Aleo-Bosch Panels and a state-of-the-art remote management system.
To achieve the required volumes, WMS has put together three teams who are delivering approximately 20 systems a week. This includes an electrician trained by Western Power Division for working on the DC side of domestic customer installations. The company have also developed an in-house survey and design team who are producing schematics using the acknowledged PV-SOL software package.
