SERCO occasionally does this. BAA Airports and smaller devolved MoD sites are covered now by SERCO firefighters I beleive. They did at one time look at recruiting "civilian firefighters" to cover military intrests in the Falklands

There is another large company that does it and for the life of me i cant remember what they are called.

But to answer your question there aren't many organistaions that do, but I see in the future it will be a growing business.
