Weatherite Service & Maintenance Limited has recently been awarded ‘Accredited Contractor’ status under the ALTIUS Assured Vendor Programme.

ALTIUS is a vendor assessment and approval scheme that has been developed specifically for the retail industry. Its aim is to raise standards amongst contractors and supplies, enabling retail companies to have complete confidence in the quality, standards and working practices of approved contractors within the ALTIUS scheme.

To gain accreditation, applicants undergo a thorough and detailed assessment programme across five key areas of importance; quality, service, commercial, risk management and CSR; all key elements of interest to retail organisations when letting contracts.

From the clients prospective, ALTIUS Assured Vendor accreditation provides and independent assess and endorsement of the high standards a contractor attains across the key areas of their business that are likely to influence the successful handling of a contract.

Mike Tulley, Director, Weatherite Service & Maintenance commented, “As a company, we are fully committed to on-going improvement processes within our business, and the ALTIUS Assured Vendor award is just the latest quality accreditation we have recently achieved, following on from Safe Contractor Accreditation.

Our business in the retail sector has grown substantially over the past 18 months and we believe the ALTIUS award will re-assure both new and existing clients as to the high standards we provide across all our areas of operation.
