Accreditation of HPE Engineers dispatched to site

[TerryND]

As part of a health & safety review, the organisation I work for has insisted on any 'contractor' attending site that may need to work on equipment at site needs to be 'SafeContractor' approved. I'm trying to find out if HPE ( UK ) is SafeContractor acreddited so that for any service calls for our on-site servers / switches / access points / wireless bridges, the on-site engineer arriving has the right credentials.

I've done a search of the SafeContractor database & can only find an entry for Hewlett-Packard CDS Limited. This appears to be a subsidary of HP, but didn't know if the acredditation covered all of HP ?

Anyone know of a compliance contact at HP to ask regarding SafeContractor ?

HP Inc. and HPE are different companies.

For more information about CDS see http://www.hpecds.com

For questions ask your HPE representative.

Thanks for the speedy responce, much appreciated.

I am unable to ask my HPE representative ( as I do not know who that is for the UK ). SafeContractor is a UK only accreditation  but all our HPE equipment & contracts are organised & purchased out of the organizations group IT team in NL.

I do not have any direct interaction with HPE in the UK ( even went to HPE Discover Madrid 2018 as part of the NL country contingent ! ).

The link you kindly provided appears to be mainly 'sales' related but obviously this is not a sales related enquiry.
