The company can now forge links with blue chip businesses like Selfridges, Morrison’s Airbus, SGP Property and Facilities Management, General Healthcare Group, Punch Taverns, Arcadia Group, Wolseley and Superdrug, after qualifying as an Altius Assured Vendor.

Gary Plant, Managing Director of award-winning Altius Vendor Assessment, said:  “ISD Solutions has demonstrated to our expert assessors that it’s a top supplier. This provides complete assurance that it has all the necessary health and safety systems, insurance coverage, and other requirements in place to be a competent supplier to large corporate customers. We are delighted to welcome the team as one of our assured contractors.”

Tony Wall, Managing Director ISD Solutions, said: “Achieving this recognised standard proves our continued commitment to the highest levels of competency. It will reinforce our ability to compete nationally for major contracts and boost our reputation as a quality supplier. The major corporate businesses who are partnered with Altius can have confidence in our abilities, and it gives us a golden opportunity to increase our sales.”

Established in 1946, ISD is a trading division of The P&M Group and is the market-leading designer, manufacturer and installer of cold stores, food processing facilities, clean rooms, data centres, and distribution centres and has a diverse customer base of blue chip organisations located mainly across the UK. The business is also a provider of choice in fire control installations, either as part of larger projects or as individual contracts, making ISD a popular single source specialist supplier to main contractors.

Altius Vendor Assessment helps companies to assess, improve, monitor and assure their supply base – to reduce their risk and liability and increase performance.  The robust online supplier accreditation and management system, which is free to clients and main contractors, take a thorough evidence-based approach to checking the competences and financial health of suppliers (vendors).

By working with suppliers to develop and assess their competences, Altius enhances their status and performance – opening up opportunities to win major contracts with some of the UK’s leading businesses. Suppliers can also raise their performance further by developing and proving their customer service, environmental and corporate social responsibility credentials to achieve Altius Elite Vendor status.
