"Conditions in most of our markets are improving and work winning during the period has been good. Year to date performance for the Group is as expected and early progress with Initial is on-track, which underpins our confidence in meeting expectations for 2014."
During the period we have won work from clients including the UK's Department for Education, Christie NHS Foundation, Foreign & Commonwealth Office, Mercedes-Benz, CBRE, Haribo, Centre for Process Innovation, University of Birmingham, Scottish National Blood Transfusion Service and Southampton City Council. Our subsidiary Landmarc has also been selected as preferred bidder by DIO for the National Training Estate Prime, continuing our role of supporting critical military training across the UK until 2019, with an option for a further five year extension (www.interserve.com/news-media).
Internationally, work won in the quarter included further oil & gas industry contracts in Oman and UAE, while in Qatar, work won included prestigious projects worth more than £100 million, such as Doha Festival City, the country's largest retail and entertainment development, and for the Al Jazeera News Network. Equipment Services continues to show good growth, with work-winning in the period including projects at Abu Dhabi International Airport and motorway upgrade works in the UK.
