Building & Property Defence, a division of the Building & Property
Group, is to provide Work Services Management (WSM) for the Ministry of
Defence (MoD). The contract is worth more than £40m over a three-year
period and will cover management and procurement of building maintenance
services across 18 establishments.
The contract incorporates work which has previously been broken down into
three separate contracts: Havant, Southampton and Andover. The start dates
for these will be December 2000, February 2001 and March 2001 respectively.
Managing director for MoD business, Sam Maroli, said: "This contract
is a great addition to our existing work with the MoD. The ‘Super
Grouping’ of the three contracts into one is testament to the quality
of Building & Property’s work on other MoD contracts and marks
the move towards larger contracts groupings in the wake of Prime Contracts."
As a result of the agreement, 30 staff will be transferred to Building
& Property under TUPE regulations.
