Putting a project out to tender, in either the private or public sector, is the process by which potential suppliers are given the opportunity to bid for it.
It is a formal process designed to ensure that the specific skills required to complete the project are provided by the supplier, giving the client a process through which to choose.
Constructionline, the UK’s leading provider of qualification and accreditation services, helps simplify the procurement process by providing a single source of accreditation to help suppliers maintain standards, remain complaint with legislation, and reduce risk.
Basically, if the trader holds Constructionline Accreditation, it means that a client, should they need to use an accredited supplier, can be sure they are inviting recognised contractors to bid for the tender, saving both time and money.
Various levels of Constructionline Accreditation exist. Gold Accreditation shows that a company has high levels of risk management and governance, obtained through the appropriate documentation and training, and can work to the project’s requirements.
Whatever new standards, risk mitigations, or compliance with changing legislation is demanded, holding Constructionline Gold Accreditation ensures that a supplier conforms to all requirements in areas such as health and safety, quality management, or environmental management.
If a provider holds Constructionline Gold Accreditation, clients know that they aim high to be a compliant, capable, and safe contractor, dedicated to high levels of customer service.
