2.7 Existing Systems – Achilles
I am already registered in FPAL/JQS; do I need to register again?
Yes, suppliers need to register on each of the Achilles’ community schemes separately. As you go through the initial
(Stage 1) registration questionnaire, you will be identified as a current member of FPAL/JQS and will not be required to
take any further action. Once your registration is complete, your profile in FPAL/JQS will become visible to Shell in SQS.
However, if you want to supply your product or services outside of your existing community scheme’s region (UK, Ireland
and The Netherlands for FPAL; Norway and Denmark for JQS) and your company is not identified as ‘low risk’, you will
be asked to continue with your registration in SQS.
I am already registered in NIPEX/NJQS; do I need to register in SQS?
No, if your company is supplying products and/or services to Shell Exploration & Production (E&P) business in Nigeria,
you do not need to register in SQS. Shell E&P companies in Nigeria are committed to use NIPEX/NJQS exclusively, and
suppliers registered on NIPEX/NJQS will not be invited to join SQS. As such NIPEX/NJQS will remain the sole
qualification system for suppliers providing products and/or services to Shell E&P business in Nigeria.
If your company is already registered in NJQS and you wish to supply products/services to Shell outside of Nigeria, you
can register in SQS.
