Jones Lang LaSalle today announced that it has been appointed by Nokia, the world’s leading maker of mobile devices, to manage its facilities in Asia Pacific. The appointment, which takes effect from June 2009 is the first time Nokia has outsourced management of its facilities in the region.
As part of the three-year outsourcing contract, Jones Lang LaSalle will manage Nokia’s facilities in 30 sites across 11 countries. The appointment was made after a comprehensive and competitive selection process that included major corporate real estate services firms.
Mr Jordi Martin, Managing Director, Integrated Facilities Management, Asia Pacific at Jones Lang LaSalle says, “We are honoured that Nokia has entrusted its real estate portfolio to Jones Lang LaSalle. The opportunity to focus our services on Nokia’s continuing initiative to reduce costs and enhance service delivery to their business units is very exciting for us. I am confident that this relationship will be highly beneficial to both our firms and will help Nokia enhance its competitive market position.”
“This win is particularly exciting for India since the telecommunications sector is one of the early adopters of real estate outsourcing, together with the financial services and technology sectors. Nokia is recognized for its excellence in technology innovation. This outsourcing decision reinforces Nokia’s position as a leading innovator in the telecommunications sector,” states Yash Kapila, Managing Director, IFM, Jones Lang LaSalle Meghraj.
