We strive to provide a world
class Facility Management Service
How We Deliver
Globe Williams’ success, evolution, and growth leave no room for the occasional or the accidental. The basis of our progress was set upon the most rigorous criteria from the very first project back in 2000. Professionalism, know-how, and ideal processes have been present since day one. Not just cumulatively but as organic parts of the overall success mindset of our 28,000 people, both the founding team and those who joined along the way.
A group of professionals was strengthened and grew as the company transcended national boundaries to become an award-winning, multi-national organisation with offices in 34 countries on four continents -from the Asia-Pacific region to Europe, North America, and Africa. After more than 23 years, our know-how gives us the confidence to consistently excel. And it is this level of excellence that lies at the foundation of every trustful relationship with each and every one of our 8,000 customers – an amalgam of thoroughness, dedication, and custom-made approach, to name a few.
After all, reaching 97% client retention is not as simple as it sounds. And if it seems easy, it’s because we know how to make it happen.
Innovations & Systems
How do you harness technology in a time when its advancements are not just larger than you think but greater than anyone can imagine? You remain focused on your true objective: the human factor. The practical aspect of technology is present across Globe Williams’ operations.
From our custom-made ERP to the use of the ‘internet of things’ to advanced HVAC Technology and beyond, innovation is ever-present – efficient, progressive, effective, and human-centered, creating a connection grid on a global scale. Thanks to our Computer Aided Facility Management (CAFM) Software, and other related software solutions processes become simpler, procedures flow easier, automations enhance productivity, and our people can uninterruptedly focus on what really matters: providing you with the best custom-made solutions to suit your needs according to the latest industry standards.
Corporate Responsibility
Each of our 28,000 employees is a testimonial of how Globe Williams exemplifies competent management and proper utilisation of its staff. In addition to continuous training and ongoing development opportunities, it offers the chance for every professional to become part of a global network that is constantly evolving and expanding, both in terms of the range of services and international presence. A network where business ethics is an unquenchable beacon, leading them and the company toward tomorrow and continuous success.
The essence of the word “presence” – especially when it comes to a business entity – is much more than a pinpoint on the map. It’s about meaningful contact with the local community. Bringing out the potential of its people and integrating them into your workforce. Partnering with educational institutions and enabling their students to come into contact with a healthy and dynamic business environment.
Giving back to the social fabric through voluntary contributions to a range of services and structures (schools, hospitals, elderly institutions, and community facilities) with a focus on sustainability.
For us, all these are not an obligation but what fuels our drive.
To be firm in your values and, at the same time, flexible in your practices is not an oxymoron – as long as there is a clear code that incorporates both the philosophy of the company and the reality of the environment in which it is located and operates. This code of conduct for Globe Williams is the guide for every employee and the non-negotiable foundation of each of its operations and process. It is a basis that is reinforced by the power of diversity. A value that’s not simply about adding different elements but multiplying human potential: it is a force stronger than the mere sum of its parts that fuels our ever-progressing course.
Act with an impact. Globe Williams‘ holistic approach to the environment and the effect that people and their actions have on it is based on two parameters: the first is related to the materials, while the second is related to the practices and protocols implemented through a building’s life cycle. Recycling and sustainability are keywords and non-negotiable values that define every possible operation. At the same time, they are a fundamental criterion for the selection of its partners, but also principles that it conveys through its example to its customers. The planet’s protection and being present in harmony with our surroundings are not simply essential; they are vital.
