VERIFY Audit Passed With Flying Colours

As part of our commitment to continuous improvement, the company has been a member of the UVDB Achilles VERIFY accreditation scheme since 2004.  The latest audit under the VERIFY scheme took place in March 2010, and examined all aspects of the management systems currently in place at the Chester office site on the East Manchester Line Extension, part of the Manchester Metrolink Project.

 John Booth (Joint Managing Director), John Hutchinson (Project Engineer), Jonathan Gray (Site Supervisor), and Alan Jones (Driller) were on hand to guide the assessor through the works planning and management procedures, and were able to demonstrate how these were carried out on site.  The audit focussed on three main areas of our site management, the scores on the day being

Health & Safety  95.3%
Environment       95.1%
Quality                96.4% 

It is pleasing to note that these scores are noticeably above industry standards for our type of work, and shows that the  hard work and knowledge invested by all staff has paid off.
