Subcontractor and Vendor Compliance

This section provides a comprehensive guide on BEC Arabia's standards for subcontractor and vendor compliance. It is strategically important as it ensures all parties involved in our mega projects adhere to the highest standards of professionalism, efficiency, and compliance, thereby safeguarding BEC Arabia's reputation and project success.

Procedures and Workflows

• Vendor Selection: Vendors must be selected based on their ability to meet BEC Arabia's quality, safety, and compliance standards.

• Contract Agreement: All subcontractors and vendors must sign a contract agreement that outlines BEC Arabia's compliance requirements.

• Compliance Monitoring: Regular audits and inspections should be conducted to ensure subcontractors and vendors are adhering to the agreed standards.

• Non-Compliance: In case of non-compliance, appropriate actions must be taken as per BEC Arabia's policies.

Compliance with KSA Regulations and International Standards

All subcontractors and vendors must comply with:

• KSA's laws and regulations related to construction and labor.

• BEC Arabia’s internal compliance policies.

• International construction standards for mega projects, such as ISO 9001 (Quality Management) and ISO 45001 (Occupational Health and Safety).

Failure to comply with these standards may result in penalties, project delays, and damage to BEC Arabia's reputation.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

• Compliance Rate: The percentage of subcontractors and vendors that meet BEC Arabia's compliance standards.

• Audit Success Rate: The percentage of successful audits conducted on subcontractors and vendors.

• Non-Compliance Incidents: The number of non-compliance incidents reported and resolved.

These KPIs help track the effectiveness of our compliance efforts and identify areas for improvement.

Cross-Departmental Collaboration

• The Procurement Department is responsible for selecting vendors and ensuring they understand BEC Arabia's compliance requirements.

• The Legal Department is responsible for drafting and reviewing contract agreements.

• The Quality HSE Department is responsible for conducting audits and inspections, and handling non-compliance incidents.

Effective collaboration between these departments is crucial for ensuring subcontractor and vendor compliance.

Best Practices and Templates

• Use BEC Arabia's standard contract agreement template for all subcontractors and vendors.

• Regularly update the compliance checklist to reflect changes in KSA laws and international standards.

• Encourage open communication between BEC Arabia and its subcontractors and vendors to address any compliance issues promptly.

Remember, maintaining high standards of compliance is not just a legal requirement, but also a commitment to our values of professionalism, efficiency, and quality.
