The Indian arm of the Belfast (Northern Ireland)-based property maintenance and contracting service provider, Red Sky, is in negotiations with the Airports Authority of India (AAI) to secure the annual maintenance contract of Trichy airport in Tamil Nadu.

"We are in a negotiation bid for the annual airport maintenance work of the Trichy Airport with the Airports Authority of India," Red Sky Property Services Managing Director Christie Cherian told PTI here today.

The company is hopeful of securing the contract in the next two months, Cherian said.

Red Sky currently maintains around 1.5 million square metres of area across South India, he said, adding, "We are looking at expanding our footprint in other geographical regions of the country."

 

At present, the company has around 40 clients, including Big Cinema and Shoppers Stop.

It is now targeting contracts from other big corporates with multiple locations, Cherian said.

Red Sky services are designed to ensure that a client's property is maintained according to specific requirements, both in terms of aesthetic and functional needs.

The firm undertakes contract for response-maintenance services, signages, pest control and health and safety as well as handling the security of a complex.

Red Sky India currently has five offices across the four southern states. "Besides our presence in Chennai, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Coimbatore and Vellore, we are now planning to enter either Mumbai or Delhi," Cherian said.
