The SMS contract managers they employ are always at the end of the phone and are really professional/friendly in their approach.

Health & Safety Surveyor, Oxford City Council

I have to compliment SMS. In all my time auditing company compliance systems I have never once come across one as good as Opuz

Health and Safety Advisor, BCH Police Forces

I have found working with SMS on the compliance of the historic buildings very reassuring and a pleasure to work with, nothing we throw at them has ever been too difficult. With the introduction of Opuz it has enabled us to have a full interactive view which is a big positive when managing a large estate or many buildings.

Senior Engineer - Historic Building Estates Team

SMS are not a company that will tell you that there is a problem and walk away, they deal with it alongside you and help and advice to ensure it is dealt with quickly and efficiently. I would recommend them as a company and there staff for their professionalism and high standard.

Head of Health and Safety, Large FM Provider

I would strongly recommend that you use this contractor. Having experienced issues with other contractors that were not performing and carrying out their duties appropriately, we recently changed contractors to SMS early in 2018. The portal they have and the technical/contractual management of the people I have dealt with is great.
