Award-winning South Wales architects the Lewis Partnership are celebrating winning a place on a UK-wide register which is designed to champion efficiency and best practice.
Constructionline is a partnership between the Government and Capita and is designed to deliver savings for both the public and private sector.
“Constructionline isn’t a name which is well known among the general public, but it is a real door-opener in business,” said Lewis Partnership Managing Director Philip Lewis.
“You have to meet key standards for a place on the Constructionline register and we’ve been successful in achieving Constructionline registration.
“Constructionline is the UK’s largest register for pre-qualified contractors and consultants.
“At the heart of what they do is a national online database. In terms of efficiency, time and cost saving and best practice, Constructionline is proven to deliver for public and private sector organisations alike.
“The service is recommended by the Government’s Office Of Government Commerce (OGC) and the Local Government Task Force.”
Mr Lewis added: “We are delighted to secure a place on the Constructionline register and look forward to it paying dividends for us as a successful local business.”
For suppliers to the construction industry, Constructionline means that they no longer need to repeatedly fill in standard pre-qualification forms for every construction tender.
What’s more, with 8,000 buyers already using the Constructionline database to source contractors and consultants, Constructionline is a great tool to market businesses.
All suppliers on Constructionline are pre-qualified to Government standards and maintain relationships with a range of industry, ePurchasing and Government partners to ensure that they remain relevant to procurement professionals within the construction industry.
By reducing duplication in the pre-qualification process, Constructionline helps both buyers and suppliers achieve savings in cost and time spent filling in forms.
Constructionline is a Public-Private Partnership between Capita (the UK’s leading business process outsourcing (BPO) and professional services company) and the Department for Business Innovation & Skills.
