British Telecom
British Telecom's Building Management Division (BMD) has its headquarters in the City of London, responsible for the management of 52 central London and 90 provincial headquarters buildings, housing a total of 19 500 staff. The division — now 1000 strong and possibly the largest single facilities management operation in this country — was formed in 1980, when British Telecom's services were separated from the Post Office in the run-up to the 1984 privatisation. Initially the department was responsible only for maintenance works and the day-to-day running of the buildings, relying on other units to deal with communications and support services, property acquisitions and disposals, and major fitting-out works. As a nationalised industry, BT relied heavily on the government's Property Services Agency (PSA) for all professional services and for the evaluation and purchase of furniture and other supplies.
