Infrastructure Services
The Ministry of Defence has entrusted our infrastructure business to manage some of its most prestigious and sensitive assets.
Serco people operate the satellites of the Skynet 5 military communications system, allowing secure communications in theatres of conflict and enabling deployed service men and women to communicate with their families.
We built and now operate the Joint Services Command and Staff College, part of the Defence Academy of the United Kingdom, the world class defence institute responsible for educating the military leaders of tomorrow. We have begun a £400 million programme to rationalise the estate of the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl). As part of that programme, we will be developing new science facilities and IT systems at Dstl's main centre at Porton Down.
Serco has also been appointed to manage the MOD's estate on Gibraltar. This contract, worth around £70m involves support to the naval base and airfield, including military logistics and marine services.
