Supply chain
Our supply chain is an integral part of VolkerHighways' commitment to offering clients a quality service. We establish mutually rewarding, ongoing relationships with our suppliers and subcontractors, and today work with many organisations where we have a long and successful history of cooperation. VolkerHighways operates a policy of prompt payment to agreed terms.
Our comprehensive database, available across the VolkerWessels UK group includes key management and performance data as well as relevant technical and financial documents to enable us to fully engage with our supply chain partners for long term mutual benefit.
We welcome new partners as we grow organically and develop new markets in the UK. We actively support the use of local workforces and Small Medium Enterprises where practically possible. The Supply Chain Trades Required List in the key documents section below details the subcontract trades and supplier categories we currently require. If your trade or category is not listed you may still apply but your application will be subject to additional review.
To work with VolkerHighways you will be required to demonstrate the following:
If you are a Subcontractor that employ 5 or more persons for prequalification approval to secure work you must hold:
- A valid registration with ConstructionLine
- A valid Safety Schemes in Procurement (SSIP)
Subcontractors will not be required to join Constructionline to tender work - only secure work. Note that Constructionline are our on-boarding partner meaning the link below shall be used for all new organisation applications.
To register your interest to work with VolkerHighways please submit your details via this link. Our supply chain will be expected to comply with our downloadable policies and procedures.
Once you have registered your interest no further action is required. Your interest has been received, this will be reviewed by our procurement team and feedback will be issued in due course.
The Constructionline & SSIP mandate does not apply to the following:
- Material Suppliers
- Vehicle Fleet Suppliers
- Consultants and Designers
- Non-operated Plant
- White and Blue Collar Labour Agencies
- Statutory undertakers or utility companies
- Subcontractors that are not in a construction environment
- Subcontractors that employ less than 5 persons
- Subcontractors RISQS accredited that only work directly in a rail environment for VolkerWessels UK
These organisations will need to complete a VolkerHighways pre-qualification questionnaire and demonstrate Health and Safety competencies appropriate to the services being provided, however those that are already Constructionline approved or choose to register with Constructionline will not need to complete this questionnaire.
Thank you for your interest in working with us.
