The Australian Defence Force (ADF) has trusted Serco to provide dedicated medical and dental equipment support, with specialist medical kitting and management of maintenance services for 25 years.                           

Currently operating alongside the ADF in NSW, Serco provides medical and dental equipment and logistical support for all ADF operations as well as peace-time training exercises and activities, and ADF Medical Centres across Australia.

From warehousing contingency stocks of pharmaceuticals and medical and dental consumables, to constructing more than 5,000 medical kits per year, and maintaining more than 100,000 items of medical and dental equipment, Serco plays an important role in supporting the ADF and Australia’s defence operational capability.

Serco Defence Managing Director, Peter Behrendt said this milestone represents the strong relationship Serco has built with Defence as a trusted Industry Partner.

"As we celebrate 25 years of service, we take immense pride in the role our dedicated and skilled team have played in delivering critical healthcare logistical and operational support for ADF operations, training exercises and within Garrison Medical Centres," Mr Behrendt said.

“Our team includes two members who, in 2025, will both reach 25 years of giving service within this team. Through such commitment, we've ensured that those in uniform are equipped to defend our nation and protect its interests.”

"Reaching this milestone reflects the dedication and resilience of our team, who have consistently provided exceptional service to enable the ADF to effectively carry out its mission to the highest possible standard."
