    Covering Newham

    What we cover in Newham.

    We provide manned guarding, waking watch, mobile patrols, construction-site security and facilities management across Newham — corporate offices, industrial estates, high-rise residential blocks and major regeneration schemes — with directly-employed teams. Security officers are SIA-licensed; waking watch officers are trained fire marshals.

    Stratford is the borough’s commercial anchor: Westfield Stratford City is the UK’s fifth-largest shopping centre with more than 250 retailers, and the International Quarter — home to the headquarters of Transport for London and the Financial Conduct Authority — has brought around 50,000 office workers to the area since 2012. East of Stratford, the Canning Town and Cody Road industrial estates are occupied by national logistics operators including DHL, TfL, Iron Mountain and Royal Mail.

    The Royal Docks Enterprise Zone is delivering 30,000 homes and 40,000 jobs under a programme running to 2038, keeping construction-site security in constant demand across the borough — a scale reflected in the London Borough of Newham’s own published £34.1 million procurement for site security and associated services. Newham also carries a significant published caseload of monitored 18-metre-plus buildings — MHCLG’s June 2026 Building Safety Remediation release places it in the "101-200" band, with 42% of those buildings having completed remediation and 17% under way — making waking watch and interim fire-safety cover an established part of the borough’s security demand alongside construction.
