The response that the whole of the public and private sector needs to mount to combat the spread and impact of COVID-19 is unprecedented.
It requires the effective and rapid management of many different complex elements, decisions, agencies and timelines. From business continuity planning, developing new supply chains and supporting businesses, to caring for the most vulnerable in society and boosting NHS capacity – this pandemic is the most significant challenge most organisations will have faced.
That is why we have created our COVID-19 Response Unit – drawing on our decades of experience managing some of the most complex and challenging projects and programmes around the world – to support colleagues, clients and our wider communities at this difficult time.

To combat Coronavirus, there is a critical need for a focused and coordinated approach across both the public and private sectors. To support this need, Mace has created its COVID-19 Response Unit.
Business continuity
If a large proportion of your workforce is required to work from home or is too ill to carry out their duties, the maintenance, resourcing and prioritisation of your most critical functions may become a significant challenge.
We can help you look ahead to potential impacts and develop mitigation plans to help your core and essential services to keep running, to protect and serve those who need them most.
Mace employs over 6,000 staff in over 30 countries around the world with a wide range of experience and specialisms. Our business remains fully operational and thanks to our international reach we can support organisations 24/7 and across geographies if required.
Coordinating and planning your response
We are adept at helping organisations navigate through ambiguity – managing multiple workstreams, interdependencies, and driving and configuring complex programmes from integrated projects.
This experience can be deployed to manage the multi-faceted response required by COVID-19. We can help provide leadership, strategic advice and assurance, management of decision making and governance, prioritisation of urgent actions, triaging of issues, co-ordination of other partners and supply chains, or the creation of integrated programmes and action plans to rapidly deliver over the coming weeks. We also have extensive expertise in complex logistics – either the movement of people and goods – particularly in regulated environments or where time is critical.
Creation of temporary accommodation for
key workers or medical use
In the wake of the Grenfell Tower tragedy in London, we rapidly worked with partners to create a programme for the delivery of a temporary secondary school. We worked with partners to identify the land required, sourced suitable structures from our supply-chain partners, co-ordinated and managed local utilities and worked with teaching staff to deliver a temporary school for 960 pupils in just eight weeks. The fastest secondary school ever built in the UK.
Additionally, our work on the 2012 London Olympics and 2019 Pan American Games in Peru involved the planning and delivery of a significant number of temporary structures at scale.
We can draw on these experiences and others to create extra space in hospital estates for patient care, repurpose and fit-out existing buildings (for example university halls of residence) for key workers to use, or to assist in the intermediate care for delayed transfer from hospital.

RESPONSE UNIT
Transferable skills and security cleared staff
The response to the current COVID-19 pandemic can benefit from transferring skills across sectors.
In light of the recent Procurement Policy Notice issued by the Cabinet Office, our cost consultants – experienced in reviewing and managing the budgets of major infrastructure and development projects – have the right skills to support public sector clients control expenditure at a time when goods and services are being bought quickly, without the usual procurement procedures in place. Experienced in highly secure and sensitive locations, our security cleared staff meet exacting criteria.

Extra care homes
Our expertise in the area of refurbishment and project management
has already been utilised by a local authority to urgently convert two
moth-balled care homes into additional accommodation.
Mace has significant experience in megaproject and programme management, and all the complexities, coordination and planning that it entails. We can use this insight to help the UK’s response and ensure its effectiveness. Additionally, we are also able to offer support on communications, digital engagement, community outreach and HR. We have a huge amount of public sector experience from working on the building of schools for the ESFA to advising the Greater Manchester Combined Authority and UCLH Foundation Trust.
