Original text:
For instance, an important distinction within on-site food service is between managed-services companies that manage a food service facility for a third party and organizations that operate their own food service (hereafter, self-ops).
我原本想翻成“自助式”，但是可能会歧义成自助餐。
另外，也请教一下english definition.
谢谢！

Sorry, but I am convinced that the "self-ops" here is referred to the "a third party and organizations..." (self-operators, noun here)
So, the Chinese interpretation should better be "自主经营其饮食服务的第三方/组织等"; Regarding to the English version, your sentence has defined it well...
Hope this helps...

In addition, if it's referred to "self-operation", we have no reason to have an "S" in "self-ops". Hence comes my answer...
