Building & Property Defence (a subsidiary of Building
& Property Group) has agreed an 11-year contract with Flagship Training
Limited (FTL), a consortium which delivers naval and management training
for the Naval Recruiting and Training Agency (NRTA). FTL is a consortium
of Vosper Thorneycroft, British Aerospace and Johnson Controls.
Under the £100m contract, Building & Property Defence will be
responsible for supplying and managing property maintenance services at
six training sites in Portsmouth, Dartmouth and Plymouth. Services include
day-to-day maintenance and repairs, lifecycle replacements and upgrades
to existing facilities and equipment.
Sam Maroli, Managing Director of Building & Property Defence, said:
"The contract draws many parallels with Prime Contracting where the
consortium, Flagship, has sub-contracted services to Building & Property
in order to meet the overall client specification efficiently, economically
and on time. We will draw on this experience to develop the way in which
we do business in the future."
Commenting on the announcement, Cliff Green, Commercial Executive at Flagship,
said that "the signature of this contract was excellent news for
all concerned."
