Enhancing Compliance Screening Solutions for Wates Construction with Secure Screening Services

Wates Construction stands as a beacon of success in the UK construction industry, recognised as one of the top privately-owned construction, development, and property services entities.

In 2021, with a growing portfolio of government contracts, Wates Construction were in need of BPSS Clearance for several thousand of their employees and sub-contractors. This would ensure that their workforce had the clearance to access secure sites imperative for their ongoing and impending government projects.

While the task was evident, the challenge was to find a dependable partner. Wates' past experience with screening providers had been marred by inadequate customer service, making them understandably cautious. They needed a provider capable of:

  1. Handling large candidate volumes simultaneously.
  2. Ensuring comprehensive compliance in their screening reports.
  3. Communicating seamlessly and efficiently with the Wates team.

Our reputation for being thorough, fast, and uncompromising on compliance made us an obvious choice for Wates Construction.
