Defence Standards & Compliance
Setting the Standard in Defence
In defence, compliance isn’t optional — it’s mission-critical. From Defence Standards (Def Stans) and Joint Service Publications (JSPs) to international certifications like ISO, suppliers and contractors are held to the highest levels of scrutiny. At WHG, we specialise in helping defence organisations, supply chain partners, and technology providers build systems that meet — and exceed — those expectations.
