Serco has been awarded a £31m two-year extension to its contract providing specialist support services at RAF Brize Norton by the UK Ministry of Defence (MOD).

Serco commenced the original three-year Brize Support Contract (BSC), which was awarded following a competitive process, in December 2021, delivering multi-activity logistical, engineering and airfield services.

The global provider of integrated support services has been working alongside the Royal Air Force at ‘Brize’, as it affectionately known for over 25 years.  The contract employs over 380 people with over 160 being ex-Service personnel.

Our team has been at Brize for over 25 years and has an intimate understanding of the critical role that the base plays for the UK Armed Forces, and will continue to make a positive impact on its future

Doug Umbers, Managing Director of Serco’s UK defence business, says: “Our team at the airfield works closely with the RAF in a Whole Force Approach, and the contract allows the release of invaluable RAF personnel back to front line duties.  Our team has been at Brize for over 25 years and has an intimate understanding of the critical role that the base plays for the UK Armed Forces, and will continue to make a positive impact on its future.”
