Services
TurnKey provides enabling services to support US Government contractors operating in high-threat, remote and complex environments. We provide specialist consultancy and support services, procurement and transportation of equipment, facilities management, and the vetting and deployment of personnel in support of US-funded contracts.

Founded in 2015, the TurnKey project is the latest venture from a team that is responsible for 2 billion dollars of US Government related contracting since 2009. Our team has significant experience in planning and delivering services to the US Government, either as the prime contractor or as part of a consortium or partnership.

Regulatory compliance is key to the successful provision of services. We have a deep understanding of the US Federal Acquisition Regulations (FARs), global import and export regulations, and ITAR compliance.

In-country life-support services ​

Whether our clients need short-term accommodation in a secure hotel, or a bespoke camp-build from scratch,
​TurnKey provides the most appropriate accommodation and life support solution to suit every project. Close working relationships with a number of life support providers guarantees competitive rates for our clients.

TurnKey's specialist personnel have significant experience in managing large compounds and complexes in hostile environments. We cover every aspect of facilities management, including communication, emergency preparedness and business continuity, operations and maintenance, quality assurance, and environmental sustainability.

Transportation and logistics solutions

Successful supply chain management requires effective transportation and logistics solutions. Our global transportation and logistics partners ensure that all project assets are delivered to some of the most challenging operating environments worldwide.

Security & Risk Management 

High risk OCONUS areas often require risk 
management and security services. TurnKey provides all its services within a framework of security and managed risk. We provide a suite of risk services from risk assessments to mobile and static security, across all countries where we operate including Iraq and the
​Indian sub-continent.

Specialist manpower and recruitment

TurnKey has well-practiced processes for recruiting both expatriate and local national personnel, as well as broad experience in deploying vetted and qualified personnel worldwide. Candidates must pass through multiple stages of assessment, including rigorous vetting, before being approved for our projects.

Import and export, and ITAR compliance

The regulations surrounding the import and export of goods is often complex and, particularly in less-stable countries, constantly changing. TurnKey is fully ITAR compliant and is well-versed in import and export regulations for countries across Africa and Middle East.

International payment services

TurnKey provides full service financial transaction support between our clients and local service providers. We provide timely invoicing and payment in US dollars for our clients, while ensuring that local suppliers are paid on time and in local currency.

Sourcing, vetting, liaising and contracting with local suppliers

Finding and engaging with local suppliers is often a challenge, particularly when entering new markets. TurnKey's specialists have extensive networks of contacts throughout the Middle East and Africa, enabling us to locate, vet and liaise with the highest quality service providers operating in each country.

Cradle to grave support for USG bidding and tendering

Our team has decades of combined bid-writing experience for the USG, from the pre-qualification stages to final bid submission. We guide our clients through every stage of the bidding process, ensuring that proposals are submitted to the highest standard and in accordance with stringent USG-specific bidding requirements.
CASE STUDY ONE
A major area of specialisation for Turnkey is in support of Foreign Military Sales (FMS). In Fall 2017 our FMS practice was awarded, and is now delivering an extensive 5 year contract in Baghdad, Iraq. The contract is fully FAR governed and involves accommodation, full life support, security, transportation, fuel, potable and grey water, generator and other equipment maintenance, visa services, government liaison and much more. This contract also involves a full camp build on a busy airfield, starting with land lease agreement and UXO clearance and finishing with a fully US spec accommodation and work facility.
CASE STUDY TWO
Our ventures into freight forwarding saw the movement of specialist parts on behalf on none standard rotary out of Huntsville, Al and our friends at i3. The equipment was bound for a USG contract in Eastern Europe. Using our London office and UK laydown facility we acquired the majority of the equipment in the UK and were able drive it across Europe using our own staff and therefore confident in the knowledge the equipment was in our hands from manufacturer to customer. By purchasing much of it closer to the destination we were able to drop costs considerably.
CASE STUDY THREE
We provide high end security and risk services in niche locations. On several occasions, we have provided full meet and greet services in Nigerian cities for a visiting US defense contractor and USG personnel. Services include meeting up from the moment of disembarkation form the aircraft, ushering through Nigerian immigration, straight into discreet transportation until safely installed in assessed accommodation, where our team remain in situ. Throughout, those travellers have been supported by our operations room in Hereford, England.
CASE STUDY FOUR
During our day to day operations we necessarily build up a degree of local and political expertise in the countries in which we work. This knowledge is being utilised through our colleague Guy Winter, in an ongoing contract to provide strategic advice for a major FMS contractor in Saudi Arabia.
