History
The company was founded in 1999. In 2001, it entered into an outsourcing contract with HM Revenue & Customs taking over 600 buildings and leasing them back to Inland Revenue under a private finance initiative (PFI) deal.[1][2]
In 2000 it purchased a portfolio of properties from Abbey and then leased them back again to Abbey.[3] Then in 2006 it secured a major outsourcing contract from the Identity and Passport Service.[4][5]
The company was listed on the London Stock Exchange in 2005,[6] before being delisted in 2009 after facing significant headwinds and poor share price performance.[7][8]
In 2023, the company was put into voluntary liquidation and FTI took charge as liquidators.[9]
