Interserve wins £16 million contract extension with Ministry of Justice

Interserve, the international support services and construction group, has been awarded a one year contract extension to provide total facilities management services to the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) worth £16 million.

The account builds upon Interserve’s longstanding and wide-ranging relationship with the MoJ, which has seen the company provide facilities services to the department for eight years. Interserve also provides the MoJ with probation services for low and medium-risk offenders in five areas of England (Cheshire and Greater Manchester; Hampshire and the Isle of Wight; Humberside, Lincolnshire and North Yorkshire; Merseyside; and West Yorkshire). Working in partnership with the National Probation Service, local charities and social enterprises, we are responsible for supporting and rehabilitating around 40,000 offenders each year.

The extended FM account will see Interserve continue to provide a wide range of services, including building maintenance, catering, cleaning, waste and utilities management, at over 450 sites across the north and southwest of England, the Midlands and Wales.

Brian Talbot, managing director for central government and defence at Interserve, said:

“We have a strong understanding and insight into what really matters to the MoJ and this particular opportunity to extend our facilities management services affords us the opportunity to continue make a real difference in helping the MoJ reduce reoffending and deliver more efficiently.”
