Advanced Traditional Screeding (ATS), the Fife-based specialist flooring contractor, has underlined its commitment to excellence by signing the Construction Quality Improvement Collaborative (CQIC).
The Scottish Government-backed initiative aims to create a ‘sustainable quality culture across construction’ by 2025, with ATS joining a number of high-profile firms in signing the charter – including the likes of Robertson, BAM, Balfour Beatty, Morrison Construction, and Morgan Sindall.
The key areas of the charter are promoting a culture of openness and collaboration; supporting innovation and continuous improvement; enhancing the quality and integrity of the built environment; advancing skills, knowledge, and understanding within the sector.
Jason Lister, MD of ATS, said, “The charter is a growing collection of businesses committed to improvement and we were only too happy to support it.
“By aligning with the CQIC Charter, we reaffirm our belief that construction quality is more than just following regulations. It is about ensuring our built environment’s durability, efficiency, and sustainability for future generations.
“The charter isn’t just a certificate or a badge. It’s a commitment to excellence and a promise to our clients to incorporate these principles into our work.
“The improvement of the quality within the construction industry in Scotland can only be good for reputable contractors who carry out quality work at a fair price. We’re happy to support anything that promotes a commitment to excellence and improvement.”
