The cemetery office isn't allowed to recommend a particular company. They will provide a list of 100 monumental masons for you to choose from. If you contact the recommended company direct, they should be able to help you get the relevant authorisation form from the cemetery office. I'm assuming that your sister was buried in the Protestant cemetery, as the Roman Catholic cemetery has a different administration and different procedures.
