The UK materials supplier said that it was awarded the certification company-wide by the British Standards Institute for successfully demonstrating – against a set of stringent criteria – a competent and efficient degree of relationship management across a variety of projects, which include a multitude of internal business areas and external partners.
Paddy Murphy, MD of contracting at Aggregate Industries, said: “I am incredibly proud of achieving this certification. ISO 44001 is quickly becoming a prerequisite for highways, infrastructure and major projects which specify requirements for the effective identification, development and management of collaborative business relationships."
By applying certified, standardised procedures, Aggregate Industries says it is able to reduce costs in innovative ways, improve project efficiency, and ensure the fast and effective resolution of any issues that may arise. Ultimately, it adds that certification means customers can be confident that they are achieving quality and value through a truly collaborative approach when working with the company.
