The Scotland and Northern Ireland Region deal covers a further 103 military establishments and will employ around 1,030 people. It will go live this November.

The contract awards follow on from Carillion securing the South East and London contract with DIO earlier this year.

Despite having a core revenue value of £158m, Carillion JV has the opportunity to double this figure through catering and retail sales.

Carillion Interim Chief Executive, Keith Cochrane, said: "We are delighted to be awarded these contracts. The DIO is a key support services customer with whom we have built a long-term successful partnership. We are committed to building on this relationship and on our position as a leading supplier to the DIO by using our core skills and capabilities to deliver high-quality services.

"These contracts play a critical role in supporting our armed forces and they have a number of unique aspects that require a specific, regional focus. They will enable us to create further training and employment opportunities for ex-services personnel in support of our commitment to the Armed Forces Corporate Covenant."
