Contract extension?
The contract has not been officially extended. Nothing has been signed. The contract will continue with the hopes of a longer contract signed effective around 1 Apr 2013. There is supposed to be a short extension from 1 Jan to 31 Mar 2013. But nothing has been signed as of yet. There is higher up Iraqi support for a contract, but numbers and services have yet to be agreed to.

What has Serco been doing for two years?
Interesting reading;
http://www.icao.int/MID/Documents/20...rd-12/WP10.pdf
Lots of continued promises from the ICAA (Serco). Most surprising is that it has taken two years to institute SMS?? If its even been completed??
No wonder the Iraqi government is dragging their feet on resigning with Serco.

Two Years continued
Doesn't Serco have an AIS Manager in Baghdad? Just took a look at the latest AIP. Two years and they are still not AIRAC compliant!! What the heck have they been doing? The document is also chock full of outdated and incorrect information. Very unprofessional and a sad reflection on Serco's contribution to the rebuilding process. I'm sure WCG and others are waiting in the wings to pounce when the ICAA wakes up and discovers they have been duped and Serco sails off into the horizon.

Sheer incompetence in that department. Again you ask what have they been doing? I hear they have a nice bar...
You think it's bad from the outside, try working there..

Haven't seen it from the inside but a few ex co-workers have and one is still there. We all know there is only one reason controllers stay there and it's not because Serco is such a great people company. It sounds like they are more concerned about sucking up to the ICAA than looking after their own people. Also, they preach safety but if the stories are true about them turning a blind eye to the locals use of electronic devices while working a position, they will have a lot of explaining to do in front of a judge when the big one happens. Serco in the Middle East is famous for talking a good game but producing weak results. The next few months will be interesting to watch as they struggle to maintain their presence in Baghdad. I feel for the guys and gals who might lose their $200,000.00 contracts.

Verci...
So...umm, you haven't posted the Serco Baghdad Management teams personal details up here yet!? 
We have a long reach from over here as well bro as you would have found out, how about you go and build a really big sandcastle over there on that beach of yours and go and play in it and leave the adults to do grown up stuff!

Need contacts
I receive a proposal from Serco to AIS Manager in Baghdad, however I didn't take any decision. Anyone could help me in get in touch with some staff working in BIAP? I need to know the conditions of accomodation and specially the security conditions there.
