What TASK CONTRACT SOLUTIONS LIMITED does

TASK Contract Solutions Limited is a UK private limited company founded in 2004 and headquartered in Burscough, Lancashire, operating at the intersection of high-security military infrastructure construction, renewable energy systems integration, and specialist engineering. The company delivers four core service lines: Sustainable Solutions (solar PV, micro wind, battery storage, EV chargers, air source heat pumps, infrared heaters, and a real-time digital energy management platform); Construction Services (factory fit-outs, armouries, concrete bunkers, clean rooms, military-grade server rooms, Faraday cage rooms, electrical substations up to 11,000 kVA, and fire-rated partitions); Engineering Services (deep-level communication tunnel water pumping platforms, specialist pipework from 200m to 2,500m, high-security steel blast doors, structural steel, and Level 1 security-cleared projects); and the Charter for Military Service Leavers (a veterans transition programme into renewable energy careers). The firm also productizes DRES (Deployable Resilient Energy Systems), a transportable 5,000kW battery unit with hybrid wind-solar integration and Starlink connectivity, priced starting at £120,000 per unit and scalable to 100 units.

TASK serves two primary customer segments. The first is the UK Ministry of Defence and defence affiliates, including the Royal Navy (HMS Eaglet), RAF (Barrow in Furness, Ashton Under Lyne), MOD sites (Workington, Merseyside, Altcar), and the North West Reserve Forces & Cadet Association. TASK has delivered secret and top-secret projects since 2014 and holds Level 1 security clearance. The second segment is commercial enterprises, including Sunbelt Rentals (multi-depot renewable energy integration), Openreach (underground tunnel power distribution), P&G Manchester (specialist surfacing), and Goldbeck (renewable energy system installation). Distribution Network Operator partnerships with National Grid and UK Power Networks enable grid connection and infrastructure upgrade projects.

The business operates on a project-based revenue model (one-time construction contracts, renewable energy installation, and hardware sales), supplemented by professional services (CDM principal contractor/designate, energy surveys, EPC assessments). The go-to-market is enterprise field sales through direct B2B engagement and government procurement frameworks, with no public pricing and project-specific quoting. TASK holds ISO 9001, SafeContractor, NIC EIC, Constructionline, and Environment Agency certifications, won the Royal Navy's first Innovation Award (Project Liverbird at HMS Eaglet), and received the ERS Silver Award 2025 from the MOD Employer Recognition Scheme.

Broad incumbents

• Kier Group: UK construction and infrastructure group with significant public-sector and defence frameworks. Comparable to Task on MOD estate upgrades, electrical infrastructure, and security-cleared project delivery, particularly in the North of England.
• Balfour Beatty: Major UK and international infrastructure group with defence, rail, and energy exposure. Overlaps with Task on electrical substation construction, renewable integration, and MOD-aligned infrastructure work but at substantially larger scale and broader scope.
• Wates Group: UK-focused construction and property services group serving public-sector and commercial clients. Comparable to Task on construction delivery for defence-adjacent and commercial estates, including electrical and renewable works via subcontract frameworks.
• Babcock International: UK-headquartered defence and nuclear infrastructure services group supporting MOD estates, naval bases, and complex engineering programmes. Comparable to Task on defence-side infrastructure delivery and security-cleared project capability, though at far greater scale.
• Mace Group: International construction and consultancy firm with UK public-sector and complex infrastructure programmes. Comparable to Task on high-specification, time-critical construction and engineering delivery for regulated clients.
• EDF Renewables UK: UK subsidiary of EDF Renewables developing solar, wind, and battery storage projects. Comparable to Task on commercial and distributed renewable EPC and battery storage integration, with significantly larger project pipeline and balance sheet.

Direct peers

• Aggreko: Global provider of temporary and deployable power solutions including battery storage and hybrid microgrids for defence, events, and industrial customers. Closest direct peer to Task's DRES offering in terms of transportable energy architecture and target use cases.
• RES (Renewable Energy Systems): UK-based renewable energy developer and EPC contractor delivering solar, wind, and battery storage projects globally. Highly comparable to Task on distributed renewable EPC and energy storage integration across commercial and public-sector customers.
• NG Bailey: UK engineering and infrastructure services firm with strong electrical contracting, energy, and rail capabilities. Comparable to Task on electrical substations, switchgear, and integrated energy infrastructure delivery, particularly for high-security and regulated estates.

Emerging players

• Moixa Energy Holdings: UK smart-battery and energy management software company focused on distributed storage and behind-the-meter optimisation. Comparable to Task on the digital energy management platform and BTM battery storage integration, though Moixa is software-led rather than EPC-led.
