How we can help
Strengthen delivery with our expert knowledge
Perhaps more than any other sector, defence requires laser focus on its core purpose – maintaining the safety of the UK and its allies. With over 30 years’ experience working on the defence estate, Mitie’s 1,300 defence colleagues have amassed skills and insights that show in our approach. Across vastly different locations and circumstances, our inside knowledge and strategy supports your seamless delivery.
Get Decarbonisation, Delivered
The UK Government’s commitment to net zero means decarbonisation is high on the defence agenda and Mitie is ideally placed to support. Whether you need energy monitoring systems, heat pumps, solar solutions, sustainability consultancy or otherwise, our Decarbonisation, Delivered approach will accelerate your journey to net zero.
Modernise your estate
Mitie’s Science of Service approach can modernise the UK defence estate efficiently and with due regard for tightening budgets. Using intelligence software, sensor technology and our teams of in-house experts, we’ll create the defence estate all its users deserve – complete with appropriate security, telecoms infrastructure and smart buildings.
Look after your people – and their families
Our work covers around 4,000 locations across the UK and overseas. Whatever the location, it’s essential those within the defence estate are cared for. If their families are present, they must be looked after too. We maintain homes and schools, hospitals and sports clubs and much more; everything needed to safeguard the wellbeing of those involved in the defence sector.
Have the assurance of a trusted partner
There’s a reason why Mitie’s relationship with the Ministry of Defence has lasted over three decades. We’re currently servicing 13 defence contracts and maintaining sites across the UK and overseas. As signatories of the Armed Forces Covenant, we couldn’t be prouder of our military engagement – and that shines through in how our dedicated colleagues deliver your services. Mitie also employs 463 veterans, enabling ex-military personnel to apply their talents in the corporate world.
