Malcolm said: “Making any of these applications can be a
daunting task to the uninitiated!
“We have been working with Richmond on Health & Safety
for the past two years and to achieve these accreditations really is the icing
on the cake. Together we worked through
the whole process from start to finish, first establishing exactly what was
required before submitting the application with the criteria to be
assessed.
He added, “They are all esteemed organisations;
Safecontractor is a leading third party accreditation scheme which recognises
very high standards in health and safety management amongst UK
contractors.
“Constructionline provides an up-to-date register of
pre-qualified suppliers for construction contracts and is accessed by 8,000
buyers from over 2,000 organisations. They pre-qualify all of their suppliers
to government standards and maintain relationships with a range of industry,
e-purchasing and government partners to ensure that they remain relevant to
procurement professionals within the construction industry.
“CHAS (Contractors Health and Safety Assessment Scheme) is
established as the market leader for health and safety pre-qualification in the
UK. It is available to suppliers and organisations looking for suitably
competent suppliers, so all three organisations have very stringent criteria to
be met. The fact that Richmond sailed
through so easily on their first application demonstrates Richmond’s already
established commitment to their clients.” He said.
Allan Tofield, MD of Richmond said: “Richmond’s applications
for these endorsements were driven by the need for a uniform standard across
the business. They will enhance the company’s ability to attract new contracts
and its commitment to safety will be viewed positively by clients, staff and
our insurers.
He added, “We are already members of quality standard
organisations such as FENSA and are indebted to MSP Business Services for their
expert help and advice to enable us to achieve these latest awards.”
Richmond has been run by Allan Tofield since January 1999
and is now a well established and respected company, taking the safety of both
staff and clients very seriously with a comprehensive Health & Safety
policy in place. They are also licensed
by the Environment Agency and all waste is disposed of responsibly.
