The way the defence sector delivers its services continues to evolve to meet global challenges and embrace new technology.
Therefore, the defence estate and procurement supply chain plays a key role in supporting the Ministry of Defence (MOD) as they prepare for operations while providing and maintaining the infrastructure to meet military needs cost-effectively and sustainably.
In the UK alone, the MOD estate is vast with over 50,000 houses, 60,000 technical assets and 20,000 additional critical assets, such as runways and electrical networks. Comprehensive Facilities Management is vital in keeping MOD assets operational.
As major water and energy consumers across their estate, the MOD can be reassured that their assets are in the hands of a competent and capable facilities management partner. Our extensive in-house capability across these essential assets means that we can respond quickly and efficiently and deliver a service that offers maximum agility to meet the defence sectors evolving needs.
Added to this, our innovative solutions help our clients in the defence sector to derive annual savings by eliminating water leakage, introducing energy efficiency technology and by delivering innovative waste management solutions.
