Policies > Sub-Contractor Policy
Policy
It is the policy of the Company only to use Suppliers and Sub-Contractors who meet our quality standards. The Company uses appropriate documented methods to ensure that purchased products and services conform to specified requirements, including verification procedures as may be specified in the contract.
Supplier Selection
Suppliers are selected on their ability to meet contract requirements including quality. Records of acceptable suppliers are maintained. The type and extent of control exercised on suppliers is defined and appropriate to the type of product or service, taking into account previous supplier performance.
