Scheme materials are displayed to demonstrate commitment to considerate construction and to provide the public with an effective complaints/comments system

Why?

The construction industry has a huge impact on all our lives. The Scheme strives to identify and promote best practice and improve the image of the industry.

Site Registration Company Registration Supplier Registration

How does it work?

Improving the image of construction - January 2013 | 10

An Ultra Site commits to register its site, companies and entire supply chain with the Scheme. Benefits:

• greater collaboration with the whole supply chain;
• sharing best practice;
• regular and consistent communication;
• better training, support and facilities for the workforce.

Each registered company and supplier will be monitored individually so they can improve upon their own specific areas, which in turn, will collectively improve the whole site. Additional monitoring and assistance is available to Ultra Sites.
