As the Coronavirus outbreak continues to put enormous pressure on businesses and front-line workers globally, we’re doing our very best to slow the spread by implementing precautionary measures.

Despite continuing shortages of disinfectants, sanitiser dispensers, refills, and  personal protection equipment (PPE), we’ve been able to secure supplies on a priority basis and hence implemented a range of precautionary measures to help protect our entire workforce and the communities which we service.

We’re continually monitoring updates from the Australian Government Department of Health and we’re adapting to the changing situation.

Hand Sanitiser Dispensers We’ve installed hand sanitiser dispensers at our client sites as well as our head office. We have some units in stock that we will dispatch upon request.

	PPE for Staff Our staff has been issued with protective face masks and gloves. We’ve also provided disposable latex gloves for residents in our community should they request them.
	Social Distancing Barriers We’ve installed perimeter barriers and/or floor markings around Concierge reception areas for social distancing.

	Zero-Profit Touch-Point Sanitation Regime We’ve implemented thorough touch-point sanitation processes and have developed a corresponding Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) to ensure all risks are mitigated and controls are identified. As we don’t condone pandemic profiteering, we’ve carried out this additional work at zero profit.
	Risk Management & Business Continuity Plans Significant time has been invested in developing comprehensive Risk Management & Business Continuity Plans for the peace of mind of our building committee members.

	Regular COVID-19 Updates We’re keeping our clients and staff well-informed via regular updates.
	Self-Isolation Registers We’ve established registers to document those residents that need to self-isolate, and we’ve introduced additional protocols designed to prevent contamination to common property.

	Site Decontamination We have enlisted the services of two specialist companies that provide COVID-19 decontamination services if required.
	Zoom Job Interviews As an added precaution at head office, we are conducting recruitment interviews remotely via Zoom.

	Key Management To further reduce the likelihood of virus transmission we’re storing residents’ keys in individual zip lock bags.
We’ll provide further COVID-19 related updates in the future as may be necessary.  Meanwhile, if you have any questions feel free to get in touch with us at info@excelbm.com.au. Thank you, The Excel Building Management & Tru Brite Team

“Excel remains deeply committed to building a culture of innovation in a sector where efficiency, reliability, and agility in the deployment of resources can be the difference between success and failure, and once again we’ve emerged as the clear front-runners,” said Excel’s Business Development and Marketing Manager, Nick Tratsellas.

The business has grown organically since 2001 building an enviable portfolio consisting chiefly of Sydney’s renowned residential developments. Having achieved this level of organic growth is a remarkable achievement in itself, and the Excel brand continues to be one of the most highly-regarded brands in the industry.

Excel Building Management has been appointed to provide Facilities Management Services to the prestigious Skye by Crown development.

The award-winning development located in Sydney’s north features 242 apartments, an expansive foyer, ground-floor retail outlets, a top-floor gym and an infinity-edged rooftop pool inspired by the world’s best five-star hotel swimming pools, providing stunning views over North Sydney.

Suzie Tobin, Excel’s General Manager, said the appointment by Skye by Crown is a testament to the continued commitment and determination of the leadership team to provide nothing short of world-class services to Australia’s top-end residential developments. “Our strong reputation to manage and retain a portfolio of renowned residential properties within the Sydney strata environment and our continued commitment to always improve our systems, processes and technology advances translates into service benefits to all our Clients and were key deciding factors in securing this appointment.”

At the heart of our business are our people, and as Australia’s leading building facilities management company with a presence in many of the most prestigious, iconic residential developments, we’re incredibly proud of the people who make up our business.

Excel Building Management, a name synonymous with high-end building facilities management, has today unveiled a new company logo as part of an ongoing evolution of the company’s brand.

“Our business has grown over the years, and whilst our current logo has served us well in the past, we felt it was time to refresh our look and introduce a logo that is distinctive and identifies with the market that we serve,” said John Cotorceanu, Managing Director. “Our brand ethos has been built on our commitment to provide exceptional service, responsibly and respectfully, backed by our extensive industry knowledge and experience – that’s what’s kept us as market leaders for almost two decades. We pride ourselves on our commitment and ability to select, train and employ all staff directly, giving our clients absolute confidence in our service delivery.”

The new logo reflects the company’s infectious culture that drives all we do, and the logo incorporates a new building graphic which symbolizes the prime environment of the Excel brand.

Water restrictions limit how and when we use drinking water outdoors and help reduce demand when we’re not getting enough rain. With the drought getting worse, severe water restrictions will be in place from 10 December.

Level 2 water restrictions apply to everyone in Sydney, the Blue Mountains and the Illawarra. This includes both residents and businesses.
