That unsurprisingly leads to greater levels of stress and anxiety.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have had extensive conversations with the DIO and service families and understand just how important a safe, secure, and stable home environment can be.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cENGIE and Serco are both proud signatories of the Armed Forces covenant and are wholly committed to delivering a service that will not only support service families but alleviate any unnecessary pressures.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Paul McCarter, managing director of Serco\u2019s Defence business, added: \u201cWe are delighted that VIVO has been chosen by the MOD and the DIO to deliver improved accommodation maintenance services for the UK\u2019s service personnel and their families.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cVIVO combines Serco\u2019s deep understanding of the UK\u2019s Defence requirements and experience of the public sector with the housing and FM expertise of ENGIE.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are excited to be working closely with the team at the DIO to deliver a step change in the maintenance of their accommodation.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>VIVO Defence Services, a joint venture between Serco and ENGIE, has been awarded \u00a3810m worth of contracts to deliver maintenance to MOD service family accommodation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[304],"tags":[24813,742,579,639],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-95216","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-planning-construction-news","7":"tag-building-contracts","8":"tag-facilities-management","9":"tag-infrastructure","10":"tag-procurement"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Serco ENGIE JV wins \u00a3810m MOD service family maintenance contracts<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"VIVO Defence Services has been awarded \u00a3810m worth of contracts to deliver maintenance to MOD service family accommodation\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/mod-maintenance-contracts\/95216\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Serco ENGIE JV wins \u00a3810m MOD service family maintenance contracts\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"VIVO Defence Services, a joint venture between Serco and ENGIE, has been awarded \u00a3810m worth of contracts to deliver maintenance to MOD service family accommodation\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/mod-maintenance-contracts\/95216\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Planning, Building &amp;
