Government/Public Sector - Defence
The role of the Services and the MOD is to defend the UK and its interests. But in so doing Defence has a major impact in the wider UK community. It provides employment, directly or indirectly, to over 500,000 people in the Armed Forces, the Defence Civil Service and Defence industry. Defence contracts are worth over £12bn each year and the MOD owns or has access to land across the country from the Outer Hebrides to the centre of London, covering an overall area about the size of Cornwall. Knowles realises the importance of this vital sector of government and strives to understand the ever changing needs of this important organisation.
Knowles understands that Military ties and traditions are an important strand in the identity of many local communities. These wide ranging connections and responsibilities, together with the capabilities provided by the Armed Forces, mean that Defence makes an important contribution to the wider community over and above its main role.
We continue to develop our skills and knowledge of this crucial government department and to find solutions to potential issues arising from construction and engineering projects undertaken by the defence organisations. We also work with many organisations that are affiliated to or have contracts with the MOD. Knowles connections with this important government sector spans decades.
