MoD to offer £300m flood of PFI work


by James Atkinson



A £300 million spate of PFI water and sewerage work will come up for grabs later this year, the Ministry of Defence said this week.

Bids from the private sector are likely to be led by the big water companies supported by consortia including contractors.

The PFI move will see the MoD transfer water and sewerage operations at 140 bases split into five or six areas.

About £200 million of long-term operational contracts and £100 million of new investment is expected to be needed.

Both Morrison Construction and MJ Gleeson said they were interested in the work.

Both have won PFI work in Scotland with North West Water and Thames Water respectively.
