Our clients Northern Powergrid and Northern Gas Networks have once again demonstrated their commitment to operational excellence by successfully renewing their Van Excellence accreditation. Logistics UK facilitates and manages the scheme, highlighting the companies’ dedication to maintaining the highest standards in van operations, ensuring both safety and efficiency.
The Van Excellence accreditation is more than just a mark of quality; it reflects the companies’ unwavering commitment to being safe and responsible operators.
For Northern Powergrid, this marks the sixth consecutive year of re-accreditation, a testament to their ongoing efforts to lead in best practices. The audits conducted in July confirmed that Northern Powergrid continues to meet, and often exceed, the standards set out in the Van Excellence code of practice. This code outlines the essential elements of safe and effective van operations, and achieving this standard is a significant achievement in the industry.
Similarly, Northern Gas Networks has achieved re-accreditation for the seventh consecutive year. Their dedication to maintaining high standards in van operations was reaffirmed through the latest audits. Northern Gas Networks continues to be recognised as a leader in the industry, showcasing best practices and a commitment to safety.
Paul Russell, VLS Commercial Manager, said: “We first arranged accreditation to the prestigious Van Excellence standard for Northern Powergrid in 2017 and Northern Gas Networks in 2016, and to retain the standard mark VLS, NPg and NGN are audited annually. We are delighted to have achieved the accreditation for a seventh and eighth year, this being the sixth and seventh renewal”
