In addition to this, reduction in new contractor mobilisation enhanced the best value delivery for SCC while ensuring fire safety compliance by having a contractor in place.\nFurthermore, SCCs strategic risk register ensures that there is access to essential professional services to support compliant delivery. In this case, SCC requires our contractor to have the industry accreditation of UKAS to deliver in line with the strategic risk register. The direct award supplier holds the UKAS accreditation.",
