“We are pleased to build on the excellent reputation that our team has already established with NSPA and their U.S. and French clients at KAF and KAIA,” said Peter Gleave, Managing Director of G3 Systems. “This win will enable us to establish a greater operational presence at KAIA as we utilize our infrastructure build, works tasks, and O&M capabilities to serve the mission.”

The G3 Oqab facilities management team has begun mobilization, and G3’s Facility and Infrastructure Services group will construct a new Life Support Compound within the main International Security Assistance Force KAIA Base to support the contract. The team will be part of the Facilities O&M group in Afghanistan, which is already running the highly successful Medical Treatment Facilities O&M contracts at Kandahar Air Force base and KAIA, the NSPA Pass and Permits, and U.S. Re-Locatable Building FM contracts at Kandahar Air Force Base. The team will be supported by all functional areas at the UK G3 Systems headquarters including Human Resources, Finance, Quality, Environmental Safety & Health, Procurement, and Logistics.
