Watkin Jones recognise that it is crucial<br />

to the success of the Group to have an<br />

effective and eff’icient supply chain.<br />

Their vision is for their entire supply chain<br />

to embrace and share their commitment<br />

to sustainable development and ethical<br />

business practices.<br />

It is Watkin Jones objective to create and<br />

develop opportunities to work closely<br />

with their Supply Chain Partners to mutual<br />

advantage so that together they can deliver<br />

the best value solutions for the benef’it of<br />

their clients.<br />

Their suppliers and subcontractors are<br />

involved at a very early stage of design<br />

development in order for them to advise<br />

on how their product and service can<br />

contribute added value to the client and the<br />

end product.<br />

The Watkin Jones Group is guided by a set<br />

of principals which form the basis of their<br />

client focused approach to the development<br />

process. Watkin Jones strive to achieve<br />

maximum value to clients by adopting a<br />

policy of continuous collaboration and<br />

partnership with their Supply Chain Partners.<br />

The well managed supply chain offers<br />

simplif ’ication and risk reduction, value<br />

engineering, cost savings, reduction in<br />

maintenance and ethical and environmental<br />

benef’its for their Supply Chain Partners,<br />

their Clients and Watkin Jones.<br />

By adopting a thorough and intensive preselection<br />

process, Watkin Jones ensure that<br />

each and every supplier or subcontractor<br />

is fully aware of the requirements to<br />

achieve Supply Chain Partner status. A<br />

detailed database of approved suppliers<br />

and subcontractors is maintained and new<br />

f’irms can only be added once quality, safety,<br />

environmental and f’inancial checks have<br />

been carried out.<br />
