Routine PPM, breakdown response, project work or compliance inspection. Each has very different competency and commercial structures.
SafeContractor / CHAS for general site safety, sector accreditation for regulated work (LOLER, PSSR, Gas Safe, NICEIC, F-Gas), ISO 17020 for inspection bodies.
Response time, fix time, escalation path, out-of-hours coverage, and reporting cadence.

Yes. Anyone moving your waste off-site in the UK must hold a valid Environment Agency (or SEPA / NRW) waste carrier licence, and hazardous waste consignment notes must be retained. Always verify the licence number before contracting.
Larger industrial services providers bundle factory cleaning, parts washing, coolant management, hazardous waste, oil collection and environmental compliance under one contract. Smaller sites often split specialist waste from general cleaning.
