Below is a description about how Coldwell Banker Corporate supported IBM and Xerox through a major training and development project in Ireland.
IBM and Xerox ran a joint training program here in Dublin over the past 6 months. The program utilised the Irish centres expertise to train up staff in new European and Indian support centers. At its peak 160 staff were here and that posed an accommodation and budget challenge.
The project was put out to tender and Coldwell Banker Corporate Services winning out on the basis of a fixed cost, single source offer. This indigenous relocation company rented out high spec housing within the area and provided all ancillary services – utilities, broadband, transport, welcome packs etc.
According to Gerry Grimes of Coldwell Banker Corporate Services, 22,000 bed nights were provided over the 6 months and their solution cut 60% off anticipated hotel costs.
All staff are now at their new desks and the support centers are running ahead of schedule.
