Continental Sports is delighted to have recently been audited and re-accredited by Achilles to their BuildingConfidence standard.  Continental has been accredited by Achilles for BuildingConfidence since its inception three years ago.  The accreditation involves a tough and rigorous on-site audit process requiring demonstration and proof of compliance in a number of areas and is not just a form filling exercise.

Working in partnership with Lend Lease, Achilles has developed BuildingConfidence – a supplier pre-qualification and accreditation service for the UK construction industry.

BuildingConfidence provides benefits to buyers and suppliers by using:

• Web-based technologies to increase operational efficiencies and reduce the costs associated with pre-qualification for clients, major contractors and their suppliers
• On-site audits with industry leading auditors to help suppliers measure their own performance and share this data with their clients and major contractors.

BuildingConfidence is quickly becoming recognised as the standard for supplier excellence within the industry. Major contractors are using the service to evaluate their supply chains, drive up performance and forge longer lasting relationships with key suppliers.

A growing number of Main Contractors see the benefits of Achilles BuildingConfidence to pre-approve their supply chain including: Balfour Beatty, Lend Lease, British Land, Costain, Davis Langdon, Mace, John Sisk, Kier, Shepherd Construction, Simons Construction, Sir Robert McAlpine, Skanska, Swift Horsman and Tarmac.
