Darren Chown, Operations Manager

Wingate have engaged IKM on numerous data and comms contracts at our secure MOD project, where John Leach and his team have excelled in understanding the security complexities and in their standard of work.

The works were carried out safely, to programme and budget and without incident, under demanding circumstances. The installation was tested and signed off and approved by the Clients representatives, who told me personally the standard of work was to the highest standard they have seen for some time.

I would have no hesitation in recommending IKM to anyone.
