Caverion to provide facility management in a new office property in Helsinki downtown
Caverion has been selected to provide facility management for the new office property Kasarmikatu 21 in the Helsinki city centre. The high-level office building completed in December 2017 offers premises for 750 employees. The property meets strict quality standards, and its tenants include Roschier Attorneys, Danske Bank, Taaleri Wealth Management, private equity company Sentica Partners and lunch restaurant Pihka and top restaurant Latva belonging to Juuri restaurants.
Caverion has been involved in the property development since the project development started with responsibility for the design and total delivery of building systems. Besides facility management, Caverion is responsible for the technical maintenance of the building.
“Kasarmikatu 21 is our first investment in Finland. The building has been constructed according to the requirements of the LEED Platinum certificate, which manifests in the quality level, eco-friendliness and energy efficiency. Caverion knows the building, and this provides an excellent foundation for operations,” comments James Robson, Managing Director of Hines Nordics Real Estate.
“Our collaboration has enabled us to create a unique property investment product that has exceeded all expectations. Caverion's complete set of services ensures that the building is maintained according to our goals. The tenants are able to enjoy first-class conditions and services,” says Kari Helin, CEO and Managing Partner of HGR Property Partners.
“We are happy that the collaboration in this exceptional new building in the Helsinki city centre continues. We are providing complete services from design and building system implementation to property maintenance and facility management. Altogether, we are able to guarantee high-quality conditions for the tenants of Kiinteistö Oy Kasarmikatu 21. The property owner will find great satisfaction in happy tenants and retention of property value,” says Ville Tamminen, Head of Division Finland at Caverion.
Comprehensive service ensures first-class conditions
The quality requirements in Kasarmikatu 21 have been set on an unprecedentedly high level on the Finnish scale. The high quality of the building, modern and versatile working conditions, and the building's flexible functionality have been central goals from the very start of the building project. Caverion has provided a 5-year warranty for the systems it has delivered.
An important part of Caverion's solution in Kasarmikatu 21 is the ServiFlex+ service, which connects the building to Caverion's remote control room. This enables the remote management of building and automation systems and ensures the energy efficiency of the property. The comprehensive 24/7 service guarantees good conditions for even the most demanding tenants.
Kiinteistö Oy Kasarmikatu 21 has seven terrestrial floors, two terraces and two floors in basement, altogether 16,000 floor square metres.
