The London Borough of Hounslow outsourced its library services to John Laing Integrated Services through a competitive procurement process. This resulted in a 10-year partnership with a focus on investment, improved service delivery, and efficiencies. After two years, usage and satisfaction increased while costs decreased through staff reductions and a leaner structure. Lessons were learned around change management and communication that will benefit future plans, which include continued refurbishment, technology upgrades, and innovation.
