Simplified and duplication-free PQQ processes

Efficiency is one of the biggest benefits of working with CHAS. We help save time and money by preventing PQQ duplication and letting you complete all risk assessments with a single body.

CHAS members get access to industry-recognised compliance and risk management solutions, covering up to 13 areas of risk. As co-founders of SSIP and the Common Assessment Standard, we can offer all the management services you need.

Risk management that adapts to you

We support public sector organisations in identifying potential risks, understanding their impact, and putting the right processes in place to manage them effectively.

We can help you demonstrate compliance with regulations such as the Health and Safety at Work Act, Environment Act 2021, CDM (2015) Regulations and more.

Protect your reputation and standing

Public sector organisations typically have more complex risk management needs, resulting from legal obligations to citizens, taxpayers and other stakeholders.

As well as helping you demonstrate compliance, our solutions will help protect your standing in the community. With assessments designed to prevent accidents, fraud, modern slavery and more, CHAS can help protect your organisation from legal liability and reputational damage.
