Strengthen Your SSIP Compliance – Talk to CQMS at PestEx 2026
Meeting recognised health and safety standards is essential for demonstrating professionalism, competence, and readiness to work with clients across the UK.
CQMS Safety‑Scheme is designed to simplify this process, helping suppliers efficiently evidence compliance while reducing duplication across procurement systems.
As an SSIP‑approved certification, CQMS provides a credible, trusted route to achieving the recognised safety benchmarks many clients require.
For BPCA members, the benefits go even further.
Through an exclusive member offer, full BPCA members can now access a free SSIP Health & Safety Certification delivered by CQMS – an exceptional opportunity to strengthen compliance without added cost.
What the CQMS Safety‑Scheme Delivers
The CQMS Safety‑Scheme supports suppliers in meeting the SSIP Core Criteria and demonstrating compliance with UK health and safety legislation.
The assessment process is designed to be clear, practical, and accessible for businesses of every size.
Key compliance‑focused features include:
- Alignment with SSIP Core Criteria, ensuring your certification is recognised across the UK by buyers who accept SSIP‑approved schemes.
- Mutual recognition across all SSIP member schemes, eliminating duplication and reducing costs. Certification with CQMS means you “deem to satisfy” other schemes such as CHAS or SafeContractor.
- Enhanced buyer visibility, with certified suppliers listed on both the CQMS portal and the SSIP Portal—helping clients verify your credentials quickly and easily.
- Consistent, expert assessment, with all audits completed in‑house by qualified assessors working to ISO‑based principles.
Whether you are a sole trader or a national organisation, CQMS Safety‑Scheme helps you meet pre‑qualification and procurement requirements with confidence.
Exclusive Free SSIP Assessment for BPCA Members
This exclusive BPCA member benefit removes barriers and enables businesses to access a recognised, industry‑standard safety certification at no cost.
Your free assessment includes:
- A full SSIP Core Criteria assessment, demonstrating compliance with UK safety standards.
- A CQMS Safety‑Scheme certificate and free use of the CQMS logo.
- Inclusion on the CQMS and SSIP portals, increasing your visibility to clients and procurement teams.
- Mutual recognition with other SSIP schemes, reducing the administrative burden of multiple certifications.
Health and safety compliance is critical when tendering for public sector contracts or large commercial clients. This free certification helps BPCA members demonstrate their competence and regulatory alignment with ease.
Even if your business already holds an SSIP‑approved certification, completing the free CQMS assessment offers clear advantages.
Through the SSIP “deem to satisfy” arrangement, you can significantly reduce both the time and cost associated with maintaining multiple accreditations.
