The contract extension builds on existing services provided by Wincanton for BAE Systems, incorporating supply chain solutions across its Air Sector and UK shipbuilding operations, extending a 23-year relationship.
Wincanton will continue to provide transport, warehousing, materials management, packing and inspection services to BAE Systems, underpinned by the delivery of continuous operational improvement and efficiencies.
