Here at IWS M&E we were recently audited by Achilles as part of the annual UVDB category B2 verification process.

UVDB is the utility industry pre-qualification system used across the UK. The Achilles UVDB Verify Audit provides pre-qualification assurance for utilities companies; enabling access to suitably pre-qualified suppliers they can confidently invite to tender and helping them achieve the highest standards of supply chain assurance.

We were understandably delighted to achieve perfect scores across the board, scoring 100% for all four areas covered by the audit: Health and Safety, Environment, Quality and CSR in both our site audit and management system evaluation.

Nathan James , general manager and commercial director, said:

“We are absolutely delighted to pass our annual audit with full marks across the board. This result is testament to the dedication and hard work of whole team at IWS. This audit is an important one for our water sector clients and provides external assurance of the robustness of our approach to quality management, corporate responsibility and how we keep our people safe at work, so we are rightly proud of our results.”
