QinetiQ Group PLC (QQ.L) announced that Metrix, a joint venture between QinetiQ and Sodexo, has been awarded a £31 million contract by the Ministry of Defence, or MOD, as part of the Defence Training Review, or DTR, Package 1 PFI Project.
The Early Training Transformation contract will see the consortium, the Preferred Bidder for the MOD's DTR Package 1 Project, take the first important steps toward providing key improvements to the UK Armed Forces' technical trade training.
The DTR Package 1 Project aims to transform the way the MOD delivers specialist engineering, communications and information systems training on a Defence-wide basis.
Metrix is a consortium led by QinetiQ, which leads the training delivery arm and Sodexo, an international facilities management group, chosen by the UK MOD to provide training design and development services.
