The Apollo Group’s specialist division, Apollo Housing has
been awarded an £8 million contract from Milton Keynes
Council.
Apollo will drive forward the Milton Keynes’ ‘Major
works to council housing stock’ programme over a four-year
period.
The contract will see Apollo’s expert team working on housing
across the Milton Keynes area.
Although the contract covers a wide range of housing repairs, the
company will primarily be responsible for works to windows, doors,
fascias, soffits and roofs.
The win comes on the back of Apollo’s successful track record
in the Milton Keynes Decent Homes programme, which completes in
March 2010.
The company has been carrying out works to approximately 2,000
properties on estates across the region.
Dave Sheridan, Chief Executive Officer for Apollo, said:
“This win demonstrates that if you do an outstanding job for
a client you are in a strong position to work with them
again.
"This win is testament to the hard work and dedication of the team
in Milton Keynes who have delivered the Decent Homes programme
there so professionally.
"We look forward to working on this new brief.”
