Salt Corporate Services

Salt Embassy and Mission Support

One coordinator, one helpdesk and one monthly report across the whole operational estate — run to your procurement rules, not ours.

Operational support for diplomatic missions and international organisations.

The business problem

A mission's administration section manages a dozen local providers alongside a diplomatic job, and every posting rotation restarts the institutional knowledge from zero.

The result is a scattered estate: separate invoices, no maintenance history, no asset register, and procurement that cannot be evidenced against the mission's own rules.

What is included

  • A named coordinator accountable for the operational estate
  • Facilities helpdesk with one number, logged work orders and response targets
  • Residence and compound management, including housekeeping, kitchen and grounds
  • Planned preventive maintenance across all building systems
  • Procurement run against your own thresholds and approval matrix
  • Supplier verification, due diligence checks and an approved supplier list

Optional modules

  • Fleet management including luxury soft-skin and B6 armoured vehicles through licensed providers
  • Airport protocol, meet and greet and visitor coordination
  • Event and national-day reception support, including catering
  • Interpreters, translation and document legalisation services
  • Security through licensed security companies, selected and overseen by us
  • Handover packs prepared before an administrator's rotation

How the service is delivered

Your procurement rules govern. We run the process, prepare the comparison and hold the file; the decision remains with your authorising officer.

The register, the supplier list, the maintenance history and the asset record sit with the desk rather than with an individual, so a rotation does not reset the estate.

Guarding, protection and armoured vehicle provision are performed by licensed companies that we contract and oversee, on the mission's instruction and under our supervision.

What you receive

  • One accountable coordinator and one helpdesk number
  • Procurement files that satisfy your own audit requirements
  • A maintained asset register and maintenance history
  • A monthly report your administration section can file without rework

Who it is suitable for

  • Embassies and diplomatic missions in Iraq
  • International organisations and UN agencies
  • NGOs with offices, residences or field bases
  • Missions losing continuity at every rotation

How to request a proposal

Tell us which functions are currently spread across providers, how many properties are involved, and what your own procurement rules require.

Where this touches legal work. Salt Corporate Services does not advise on diplomatic, consular or immunity questions, on host-country obligations, or on any regulatory matter. Those remain with your own legal advisers or with Salt & Associates, engaged separately.

Common questions

Can you comply with our procurement regulations?

Yes. Your thresholds, approval matrix and documentation requirements govern, and the file is built to satisfy your own audit rather than ours.

Do you provide security personnel?

Guarding, close protection, secure movement and armoured vehicles are performed by licensed security companies that we contract and supervise. We select them, hold the contract, and oversee performance and invoicing, so the mission deals with us.

What happens at a rotation?

A handover pack is prepared before your administrator leaves: registers, supplier list, maintenance history, asset record, open actions and contacts.
