Why public sector contracts require the right contractor
Public sector catering demands more than a van and a toolbox
MoD sites, council facilities and public sector organisations can’t appoint contractors without the right accreditations, insurance and documentation. We meet every requirement — and we already work across the public sector in Kent.
MoD site requirements
Kent MoD sites have specific contractor vetting, site access and security requirements. Our engineers are experienced with MoD site protocols and carry the accreditations needed to gain site clearance and work within the required procedures.
Council and civic procurement
Dover District Council and Ashford Borough Council catering operations require contractors who meet local authority procurement standards. Our triple-ISO certification, £5m PLI and full documentation trail satisfy those requirements at every level.
Audit and inspection readiness
Our ISO 9001-certified service produces gas certificates, F-gas compliance records and equipment-condition reports in the format public sector auditors expect. No chasing paperwork after the visit — it comes with the job.
