We operate a formal supply chain, managed by CHAS, which requires subcontractors to attain the Build UK Common Assessment Standard accreditation to ensure we meet legal and regulatory standards.
The Common Assessment Standard is designed to standardise the pre-qualification process, helping improve supply chain efficiency and reduce supply chain risks. This includes the requirement for SSIP certification, and builds on the PAS 91 prequalification questionnaire, helping contractors achieve compliance and mitigate risks across 13 key areas of risk management.
If you have already achieved the Common Assessment Standard with another recognised assessment body as listed below, then you simply need to share your accreditation details with CHAS by registering for a free CHAS Foundation account here.
- Constructionline Gold
- Achilles Building Confidence Gold
- CQMS Safety Scheme Premium
- SCCS Build Assured CAS Lite
If you do not have accreditation to the Common Assessment Standard with any other body and wish to gain the accreditation through CHAS, then contact 0345 521 9222 quoting CLARK24.
Both Clark Contracts and CHAS are committed to supporting you in achieving your accreditation, so should you have any concerns or require additional information, please contact subcontractors@clarkcontracts.com.
