Buchan Offshore Wind has partnered with global supply chain specialists Achilles Information to implement a new and enhanced supply chain management system.

The introduction of the new system will allow the Buchan team to standardise supplier onboarding and evaluation across the project’s entire supply chain – thereby ensuring that suppliers are assessed to a risk level consistent to their scope of work and expertise.

Commenting on the partnership, Buchan Offshore Wind Supply Chain and Procurement Lead Logan Robb said:

“The Achilles system brings a global database of pre-qualified suppliers and a proactive approach to ESG, Health and Safety, financial and cybersecurity evaluation, and we see this as a natural fit to delivering on our ambitions to bring commercial scale floating offshore wind – using the patented BW Ideol Damping Pool^® floating foundation – to Scotland.”

“The evaluation of suppliers is critical to the successful development of the Buchan Offshore Wind project, and the implementation of this best-in-class system is in keeping with our ambition to put health, safety, environment and quality at the heart of everything we do.”
