Babcock business development director John Stratton said: "It has a clear bearing on support to operations and we look forward to applying our experience and proven track record in delivering consistently to time and quality, directly supporting the MoD."

Last month, the company received a contract from the MoD to support the Shaman infrastructure and support contract, which involves the deployment of the Shaman shipborne maritime communications electronic support measures (CESM) system and infrastructure.
