Re: HM Forces Contract
I think that you'll find Bernard that the MoD farms out these contracts to different contractors depending on the region covered.
Then again, some of the main contractors probably sub the work out yet again.
In my area for example there are two contractors covering some of the RAF and Army sites, one for each service.
Some names that I know are...
Sodexho, Alfred McAlpine, there's someone else based in Exeter but I can't remember their name....I'll have a dig around and come back.Last edited by Brian_UK; 21-09-2006 at 11:17 PM. Reason: Added some names

Re: HM Forces Contract
The contract is usually given to a building services company who are based on site to do everything from unblocking the toilets to repairing and installing fridge and air con equipment.
I have had dealings with MITIE maintenance, Dodds, Serco, CGS and many more whose names have slipped my mind.
They usually have a 2 year contract at the end they are replaced and it is left with who ever takes over if to retain the staff and the sub contractors. My work was on a few of the RAF sites.

Re: HM Forces Contract
Mitie is maintaining a job site in Nottingham (a gas utility company) with some of our CCUs.
I'm not at all impressed so far.

Re: HM Forces Contract
As regards overtime, I think thatt he companys try and restrict site working to normal daytime hours.
Any overtime would have to be an emergency and not normal maintenance working time.Brian - Newton Abbot, Devon, UK
