What is COP119?

Achieving COP119 accreditation demonstrates that iES Security operates in line with industry best practices and meets rigorous technical and operational requirements. It provides assurance that our systems, processes, and personnel consistently deliver reliable, compliant, and high-performing security solutions.
For our clients, this means greater confidence that projects are delivered safely, professionally, and in accordance with recognised industry standards.
