Supplier compliance is an essential requirement for buying organisations in today’s world. Suppliers must demonstrate to buying organisations that they comply with a continually growing list of legislation and guidelines in health and safety, quality assurance, environmental protection, ethical practices and many others.
Verified Supplier allows you to showcase your credentials and certifications to potential buyers, making prequalifying contracts across the UK easier and faster. By becoming a verified vendor, you can demonstrate compliance in up to nine areas of risk management.
Buying organisations depend on verification schemes to assess the capabilities and risk management standards of potential material suppliers. Our Verified Supplier service is designed to help suppliers gain a competitive advantage and win more business.

CHAS is one of the UK’s most widely recognised compliance verification providers.
As co-founders of SSIP, the Common Assessment Standard, and the core criteria of the Approved Code of Practice supporting CDM 2015, your Verified Supplier membership will be nationally recognised. This helps reduce the need for duplicate certificates, saving you both time and money.
Verified Supplier will confirm your commitment to best industry practices and safe processes as a supplier. To achieve verification, our risk management specialists will assess the following areas of supply chain risk management:
CHAS will verify whether your company has a health and safety policy or valid certification with standards such as Safety Schemes in Procurement (SSIP) or ISO 45001.
We’ll verify your protocols for mitigating financial risks by assessing your financial documents, forecasted turnover and the financial health of your sub-contractors.
Business insurances are a legal requirement, protecting your business and potential clients from mistakes, accidents, theft, damage and legal fees.
We’ll ask you to answer environmental questions to determine whether your company has taken the necessary steps to comply with environmental protection standards.
Quality management is critical to ensuring that any materials supplied to clients meet quality standards. We’ll ask you to provide documentation based on the type of materials you provide.
We’ll verify whether your company promotes equality and diversity in the workplace and ensures that all people are treated fairly.
CHAS will confirm that your organisation has taken steps to assess and manage modern slavery and human trafficking risks. Under the UK Modern Slavery Act 2015, some organisations must publish an annual statement explaining the measures that they take to prevent modern slavery in their business and their supply chain.
We’ll verify your corporate social responsibility (CSR) policy and confirm your actions to prevent workplace bullying, gender pay gaps and minimum wage breaches.
You will need to demonstrate that your company has cyber security protocols in place to protect personal data in line with UK GDPR guidelines.
