Workplace Performance

Organisations strive to increase productivity in order to improve the bottom line. Workplace wellbeing is a key part of the productivity jigsaw, and by improving the internal environment in offices and working areas, we improve staff wellbeing and performance.

Facilities Management

Facility Management can be complex and costly. We improve both hard and soft facilities management to increase efficiency and for better employee and customer experience.

Net Zero Carbon

We design building cost reduction programmes for organisations to significantly reduce costs including reduced carbon emissions and reduced energy costs and consumption. We achieve results by making your organisation more efficient and by renegotiating with your suppliers.

Project Management

Most capital projects end up over budget, miss their deadlines and sometimes fail to meet specifications. Our extensive experience plus fanatical attention to detail and ability to spot and avoid potential problems means that we have a record to be proud of: delivering successful capital projects smoothly, on spec and on time.

What our clients say

“The LCMB team has a combination of skills and experience which adds real value to an organisation like ours where real estate plays such a critical role."

"The entire process was very well managed by LCMB. The Trust’s objectives were well presented and the key operational and service requirements was clear to all bidders at critical times. Importantly, all stakeholders were kept informed of progress throughout the various stages”

“LCMB really understood the brief and took time and effort to engage a broad number of stakeholders, all of which was essential to ensure the success of the project. Their facility knowledge and understanding the need for a customer focussed approach has given us some excellent tools and resources as well as a strategy.”

"UCLH aspires to be at the forefront of NHS sustainable performance and for this reason we like to work with companies like LCMB who can help us get there. The LCMB team have helped us completely refresh our Sustainability Strategy and implement a plan that will dramatically improve our performance by engaging our people, our supply chain and delivering invest to save schemes.”

"LCMB has been working at the airport delivering a behaviour change programme since 2014. Our approach to energy management has been transformed and our costs have been reduced. Staff have been put at the heart of our mission to cut carbon and the staff survey confirms that they now feel more accountable for operational energy use and more empowered to take action to reduce it.”

"LCMB gave Darke & Taylor a fascinating insight into our workplace and as a result we intend to make changes to the working environment to help improve staff satisfaction with their place of work and to improve productivity."

"LCMB consistently provide excellent advice and assistance across a range of services their commission on a project is always reassuring"

"LCMB are approachable and willing to adapt to the challenges of the project. The director support provides a peer perspective in decision making and to help focus on the bigger picture."

“LCMB had been working as project managers within our capital programme when COVID-19 impacted the UK. They immediately offered the Trust their resources and support to help us respond. Their help was invaluable in reconfiguring our wards, buildings, estate and infrastructure to respond to the first wave of COVID-19 patients. Their team project managed the implementation and running of the additional welfare facilities and parking required to support our staff who had to work long hours, under difficult circumstances. Their team have also helped us to make our non-clinical workplaces and area’s at the hospital COVID secure. Their team are continuing to support us with our capital programme and COVID secure requirements. We have enjoyed working with them and highly recommend John and the LCMB team.”

""LCMB have uncovered some potential causes behind issues in our workplace that we didn't think we could control. As a people business there is nothing more important to us than a productive workforce so this is extremely valuable."

"A joy to work with external Professionals that value the NHS and not just the value of their commission."

“LCMB helped us understand & accurately measure our energy consumption as a business across all our sites so we could create a clear strategy & implement initiatives to reduce our carbon footprint in the UK. The information gathered & opportunities put forward under ESOS have contributed to our global net zero strategy & ensured actions are taken now in reducing our CO2 emissions”

"Working with the LCMB team to re-negotiate a new Hard FM tender in a short space of time could have been a challenge however their professionalism in carrying out this service with us was second to none. We have used LCMB on several other projects since and will definitely be working with them again on a further project shortly. I would have no hesitation in recommending LCMB to any other organisation that needs the support of a professional, experienced and competitive building performance company."

“Mike & the LCMB team were recommended to us by another contract within BouyguesEnergies & Services Solutions, we had a requirement to provide a comprehensive report into the sites energy usage, with in-depth analysis into trends in usage and also energy reduction initiatives which would have the greatest impact in energy reduction. Mike understood our requirements completely and after an initial set up meeting, worked very autonomously liaising with the energy suppliers and all stakeholders to produce a report which exceeded our expectations from the first draft, which was extremely well received by the client, it contained costed initiatives for both big picture energy projects together with ‘low hanging fruit’ low cost quick wins and the right amount of technical detail in plain English with intuitive diagrams to be able to be shared with a wide audience without further editing. When a recent request came in to provide energy management expertise, I contacted Mike straight away”

"Fantastic team to work with"

"We have worked with Mike for several years and he always provides a first-class, professional service. He patiently answer all our questions and LCMB provided an easy to understand report with clear, concise recommendations".

"I have used LCMB before and their service on this occasion was very professional as it usually is."

"We had the pleasure of working with LCMB during the development of our Perry Barr Bus Depot. The depot was carefully designed to be future proof for our transition to an all electric vehicle (EV) fleet. The team at LCMB led the construction project from design to handover and were dedicated, professional and exceeded our expectations. Communication was clear throughout and the project was completed on target. We look forward to future collaborations and highly recommend LCMB as a reliable partner for any businesses seeking help and expertise in the built environment"

"Mike is amazing. He’s worked with the team brilliantly and helped us to get from a terrible position to one of clarity and confidence. I can’t value him highly enough".
