Top compliance accreditation for affinity landscapes Ltd


affinity landscapes ltd is pleased to announce that they have successfully achieved exor accreditation, demonstrating their ability to meet the rigorous pre-qualification requirements within the private and public sectors.

The Surrey based firm recently received accreditation from exor, whose standards are recognised as being amongst the highest in their industry.

Gary Rees-Keeble, Director of affinity landscapes Ltd said, “Again, we have shown we have the processes, people and skills to have gained this accreditation, along with our SAFEContractor (www.safecontractor.co.uk)  and Trading Standards 'Buy With Confidence' (http://www.buywithconfidence.gov.uk/) status, it puts us in a very strong position as the economy improves.

Established in 1997 to supply an efficient, outsourced supply chain service, exor understands that the management of risk is a central issue in the procuring of goods and services, adopting a thorough and robust approach to independently check and validate supplier information. Only suppliers and contractors that can attain and maintain these high standards will gain admission to the approved exor supplier database.

John Kinge, Technical Director of exor said, “Organisations need to be able to ensure that their supply partners are reliable, financially stable and compliant with all relevant legislation. A third party accreditation scheme can be an efficient way in which to manage complex compliance issues such as these.

With robust supplier management in place, the company at the top of the supply chain will have the confidence they need to outsource vital services, which removes the hassle of verification and gives piece of mind that they are adhering to regulation and industry best practice.”

Accreditation is a process in which certification of competency, viability and compliance with legal requirements and current codes of practice is presented.

The exor accreditation scheme assesses, reviews and audits suppliers’ procedures and documentation; suppliers can then be included on a database which demonstrates they have met the highest standards in the market place in procurement risk management.
