About MMD Consulting

Daniel founded MMD to apply enterprise-level FM thinking to the sector that needs it most — schools and community organisations that carry the same responsibilities as large estates but have never had the professional support to match.

As an Engineering Manager at the University of Surrey, Daniel managed a large directly employed maintenance team, ran CAFM systems, oversaw PPM and reactive works and managed statutory compliance across a major university estate. This operational background — understanding what it takes to run an estate properly from the inside — informs everything MMD delivers.

As Director of IVR Electrical, Daniel led complex electrical contracting projects in the UK for world renowned global clients and multiple educational establishments at all sizes. As Critical FM Operations Manager, he operated within a data centre and critical FM environment, managing PPMs, directly employed operatives and specialist contractor networks to the highest standards of building reliability. Daniel has a proven track record delivering demanding electrical and engineering projects for major organisations across the public and private sectors, including educational establishments and critical national infrastructure.

Daniel's extensive electrical qualifications and knowledge means he can independently inspect, test and certify electrical installations as well as offer direct industry knowledge — This combines deep technical expertise with practical FM leadership, a capability most FM consultants do not possess, and one that brings a different quality of electrical oversight to every client engagement.

Gareth, MMD's Compliance Specialist, brings a depth of statutory compliance knowledge that is extraordinarily rare anywhere in the Facilities Management sector — qualified to the highest compliance levels across some of the most demanding regulated environments in the UK and across the world.

With experience spanning nuclear sites, high-security government facilities, educational establishments and critical data centres, this is not general compliance knowledge applied to different settings. It is the genuine article — the kind of expertise developed over years of working where the consequences of getting compliance wrong are the most serious imaginable.

Every compliance obligation MMD manages for clients — electrical testing cycles, fire safety documentation, water hygiene programmes, asbestos management — is backstopped by this level of specialist knowledge. Schools and charities working with MMD are supported by a compliance framework that would be appropriate for a nuclear facility.

MMD's Mechanical Engineering Specialist brings something genuinely unusual to a consultancy serving schools and charities: the highest level of mechanical engineering expertise combined with strategic FM leadership at global director level.

With over 30 years of mechanical engineering and Facilities Management experience, this consultant has operated at the highest executive level for multi-billion pound organisations, leading FM strategy and delivery across international portfolios. The breadth of mechanical engineering knowledge — across heating, ventilation, HVAC, plumbing and building fabric — and the strategic FM thinking this brings to MMD's clients is unmatched at this price point.

A school's boiler plant, ventilation system or ageing building services infrastructure presents no challenge that has not been encountered — and resolved — at far greater scale and complexity. MMD's clients benefit from that experience applied directly to their own buildings.
