Maintenance on the majority of MOD bases is carried out under contracts managed by the Defence Infrastructure Organisation. However, a proportion of bases are managed by other individual areas of the MOD and are detailed separately in corresponding tables above.
Maintenance cost data prior to Financial Year 2018-19 is not held because IT systems and contracts were not configured to capture data in this way.
