Public Sector

The Litmus Partnership helps local authorities, emergency services and government departments improve catering and soft facilities management service delivery.

Delivering Value, Efficiency and Accountability for Public Sector Organisations

Public sector organisations face constant pressure to deliver more with less — balancing efficiency, compliance, and service quality while meeting the diverse needs of the communities they serve.

At Litmus, we understand these challenges. With over 25 years of experience working across local and national government, we’ve helped public sector bodies significantly reduce expenditure while ensuring best value and measurable outcomes from their facilities management and support services.

Our experience spans local authorities, police and emergency services, and government departments, including those operating in secure and sensitive environments. Whatever the setting, our approach is built on integrity, transparency and impact.
