Fifty four properties. One partner. Every UK postcode.

One partner, 54 active properties, and a system built around the project, not the market

The situation

Siemens run projects across the length of the UK, from major infrastructure sites in the Scottish Highlands to schemes in East Anglia, Kent and beyond. Each project brings its own workforce, its own timeline and its own location, often changing month to month as teams mobilise and demobilise. Managing that through multiple local agents or suppliers meant fragmented service, inconsistent standards and no single view of where people actually were.

What PAP does

Siemens now works with PAP as a single accommodation partner across every active site, currently 54 properties nationwide. Rather than treating each project as a one off booking, we operate a postcode specific model: whatever postcode a Siemens project lands in, we already know that local market and the property types available, and can move quickly on realistic timelines. That means we are not starting from zero every time a new site opens. We can move as fast in Inverness as we can in Essex.

This matters more than it might sound. Generic national suppliers tend to quote broad regional averages and take longer to source in less common locations, because they are working the market cold. PAP’s postcode level knowledge means faster turnaround, more accurate budgeting from the outset, and properties that genuinely fit the brief rather than the nearest available option.

Every property, regardless of region, runs through the same PAP systems and the same single point of contact on the Siemens side. That gives Siemens one team to call, one process for booking, amending or closing out a placement, and one consistent standard of service whether the project is in the Highlands or Hertfordshire. Reporting and occupancy tracking sit in one place too, so Siemens always has visibility across the full portfolio rather than piecing it together project by project.

The result

Siemens now treats PAP as the default accommodation partner for new projects as they come online, rather than re-tendering supplier by supplier. The relationship has grown from individual bookings into a standing portfolio of 54 properties, with the same reliability and postcode level responsiveness whether a new site opens in Scotland, Wales or the East of England.
