BS 10800:2020 is a code of practice for the provision of security services. Designed to provide operational recommendations for businesses working within the private security sector, it has now become a requirement for the SIA’s Approved Contractor Scheme (ACS).

BS 10800 has been put in place to bring the many British Standards for the security services sector, such as BS 7858 and BS 7499, in line with ISO 9001. This makes it easier for security businesses to integrate the various BS codes of practice into their management systems.
To meet the requirements of ISO 9001 with added processes for BS 10800, you will therefore need to cover:
Management Responsibility – the areas within the QMS that your management team need to focus on, be involved with and be accountable for
Resource Management – how resources such as people, infrastructure and facilities must be assigned to ensure the best possible performance
Product Realisation – details on how your business will operate in order to provide a high quality service or product
Measurement, Analysis and Improvement – how you can determine if your Management System is working as expected, facilitating the continual improvement of your system

Very professional yet customer friendly service. All QMS personnel have been very helpful & informative. [The Consultant] was particularly helpful, QMS must value him highly.
Ian Griffiths, IDG Tool Repair and Electrical Testing Limited
The auditor was very polite and forthcoming. He was very interested in the company and what we do which helped with the audit and the questions asked. We were able to take the auditor into Manchester on a site visit which helped him view the operational processes. [He] was a great auditor.
