Achilles operates the prestigious Utilities Vendor Database Service (UVDB), used by leading UK utilities companies. This week J Browne Construction successfully achieved 100% in all categories of the Achilles UVDB supply chain assurance audit for the third year running.
The two day audit involved a detailed review of J Browne’s management systems for Health & Safety, Environment, Quality and Corporate Social Responsibility, as well as a site based assessment of our working practices.
Achilles works with all the major utility buyer companies, including Thames Water. The UVDB allows buyers to choose from a list of pre-qualified suppliers, who’ve proven their services to be of an impeccable standard. The scheme requires the highest standards from both suppliers and buyers, which is why UVDB accreditation is so widely recognised
