Social enterprise security provider Corps Security has won a contract with The Langham Estate, a multi-site residential and commercial property management company in Fitzrovia, London. The contract began on the 1st of November 2024 and will bring together the two organisations that share community-based values and a focus on people.
The contract brings together Corps Security and its remote services division Corps Monitoring to deliver a truly integrated solution, combining physical security guarding with remote monitoring and response. This will be supported throughout the contract by Corps specialist consultancy team, Corps Consult.
Corps Security will provide services for 56 sites across the estate, with 18 new colleagues transferring to the company. Corps Monitoring will provide technologically advanced security systems and remote services. Corps Consult will also provide ongoing consultancy and routine security reviews, surveys and audits depending on the estates’ requirements.
The Langham Estate appointed Corps Security following a competitive tender process, where the security specialist demonstrated both its security expertise and extensive capabilities as well as social value credentials. The Estates’ own commitment to paying a living wage and advocacy for officer wellbeing and work-life balance is shared by Corps, creating the basis for a successful partnership.
Like Corps, The Langham Estate is steeped in a rich history, which began back in 1925. Over the years the estate has evolved, creating a vibrant and exciting neighbourhood in the heart of central London, that offers a diverse range of residences, commercial office space and leisure and retail offerings.
Andrew Topp, sales and marketing director at Corps Security, said: “We are delighted for our new relationship with The Langham Estate, exploring the best-in-class integrated security solutions to keep people and assets safe and secure. Our company values align and we are looking forward to forging a strong relationship grounded in trust, collaboration and innovation – the best recipe to drive success and create a lasting impact.”
Graeme Noot, head of FM at The Langham Estate, said: “From early in the tender process, Corps stood out as the leading candidate. They align closely with our people values, commitment to service excellence as well as shared our commitment to sustainability. Their ability to support us through our drive to a more innovative security solution across the estate which we believe will further enhance our customer experience. We are looking forward to working closely with Corps to further develop our security services and grow our partnership”.
