Supply Chain Excellence

This award is to recognise outstanding performance by a supply chain, where all partners have worked together towards common goals and can demonstrate improved performance.

This can be demonstrated on a specific project, or as part of a partnership, framework or joint venture, and should highlight how supply chain collaboration and integration has resulted in a better outcome for all parties.

The entry should have one main proposer, but provide details of other relevant companies involved. As a minimum the entry should contain details of the client or clients, principal contractor and a specialist contractor.

Judges will be looking for evidence of, as applicable:

• Common goals and culture on health and safety, sustainability and training
• Evidence that collaboration through the supply chain led to better outcomes
• Fair payment terms and practices
• Supply chain risk management
• Early contractor involvement
• Innovation
• Outstanding projects
• A stand-out performance that particularly merits this award – the ‘wow’ factor
