DML Group

The DML Group offers a complete range of design, build and support solutions across both defence and commercial sectors. In addition to its traditional refit and maintenance role, DML is increasingly working at the earlier stages of major warship design and construction programmes. In the commercial arena DML undertakes high-tech engineered composite work, overhauls railway equipment and builds, converts and refits large yachts and specialist craft.

DML has extensive facilities at Devonport Royal Dockyard and Appledore Shipyard and offices in Keynsham and elsewhere. The DML Group also includes the consultancy companies LSC Group and Frazer-Nash which offer front-end design, analysis, safety justification, through-life support and asset management solutions.

Devonport Royal Dockyard's origins date back to 1691, when William of Orange commissioned the building of a new dockyard to support the Royal Navy in the Western Approaches. Devonport is the largest marine support complex in Western Europe.

Today, DML employs about 5,100 people and its business operations generate an annual turnover of about £500 million. The company is the largest private sector employer in Devon and Cornwall.

DML's policy is to be as open as possible about its affairs, subject only to the constraints of commercial confidentiality and national security. This website is designed to provide information about the company, our business activities, our health, safety and environmental policies, and our activities in the community.
