Achilles

Eurostar has joined the Achilles carbonReduction programme to achieve the internationally recognised CEMARS (Certified Emissions Measurement And Reduction Scheme) standard. 

200 UK companies were interviewed as part of an original piece of research with procurement professionals. It found that 8% of organisations interviewed believe more than half of their suppliers are ‘high risk’ – defined as suppliers whose ‘financial failure, failure to deliver or failure to comply with relevant legislation or regulation would cause significant financial cost and/or reputational damage’ to the buyer.

First Greater Western Ltd (FGW), train operator of one of the largest rail networks in the UK, is the first rail company to implement a single supplier management system with Achilles. 

The Environment Agency has completed CEMARS certification through the Achilles carbonReduction programme, demonstrating their commitment to reducing carbon emissions.

Achilles has been selected by the State owned Bahrain Petroleum Company (BAPCO) as their supplier qualification and information management partner.
