Amey, the support services and infrastructure specialist, today announced that it has signed a further five-year, £200 million contract extension with QinetiQ to provide Total Facilities Management (TFM) services to 30 of QinetiQ’s UK sites.

The Amey team has shown a strong commitment to understanding our business needs and to providing a high quality service and we look forward to working with them over the extended period of this contract."

For the past six years Amey has provided QinetiQ with a range of TFM services that include property maintenance, cleaning, conferencing and distribution services.  These are augmented by a specialist portfolio that includes fire services and fire awareness training, aircraft refueling, hazardous waste management, chauffeur services and freight haulage.
