This year, Altius are celebrating 10 years in business. After a busy few months at Altius HQ, we wanted to take the time to reflect on the past decade of success.
Altius was incorporated back in 2007, and it didn’t take long for the business to take off as we landed our first major client, Bellrock, just one year later.
In the following years Altius won a number of consecutive industry awards and built working relationships with household names such as Boots, Marks & Spencer and Morrisons.
Ten years down the line, we have secured our biggest contract yet with the National Contract from Rail Safety and Standards Board for the whole of the UK rail industry.
To show our journey from the beginning right up until the present day, we have created a special anniversary infographic, which will showcase just some of the highlights from the past decade.
Born out of a desire to improve the challenges supply chains posed to businesses, Altius builds on its current directors’ wealth of experience within the industry to offer solutions to anyone working in, or managing supply chains.
SGP Property & Facilities Management Ltd, now known as Bellrock, partnered to develop a robust supply chain compliance system, to remove the risk of lapses in compliance. Altius were initially introduced to Bellrock’s clients at the time including Pizza Hut, NCP and Punch Taverns. Altius continue to work with Bellrock today!
The Abu Dhabi Government chose Altius to provide supply chain management consultancy whilst looking to improve the service they received from their suppliers. Altius worked with key stakeholders to improve overall compliance, performance and service.
Altius have always had a huge commitment to quality when it comes to delivering supply chain compliance, this was proven in 2009 with the ISO 9001 certification.
Altius, alongside major client Bellrock, were awarded the prestigious British Institute of Facilities Management (BIFM) award for showcasing outstanding initiatives and innovations within the facilities management industry.
Altius are pleased to be registered members of Safety Schemes in Procurement (SSIP), the governing body created to reduce health and safety assessment costs in the supply chain.
Today, Altius boasts the quickest turnaround and best overall value certification to get onto the SSIP portal with CDMComply. Learn more about SSIP with Altius
Altius started to work with a leading advertising and marketing services agency network, based in Chigaco, with 96 offices in 84 countries.
At the time of contact Altius only offered an outsourced compliance management programme, but with the mix of extensive industry experience and technology expertise, Altius’ software platform was born to offer in-house compliance management.
Altius began managing contractors for high-street brand, Boots, across the UK.
Altius secured more recognition, this time alone, for innovation within the industry from i-FM. This award recognises companies that are utilising new technologies to achieve exemplary improvements in business processes and performance in the facilities sector.
As the business grew, so too did the need for more office space, this move came in 2014 to the current location on Wyvern Industrial Estate in Derby.
Spanning 10 countries Altius’ software is now multilingual and covers the following languages: French, Spanish, Italian, German, Dutch, Polish and Czech.
Another high-street giant chooses Altius to manage their contractors across the UK.
This year, Altius, in partnership with Capita, were selected to provide enhancements to RISQS, the UK railway’s supplier pre-qualification scheme. Managed by RSSB, the scheme is used by Network Rail, London Underground and 116 other buyers with 4,300 supplier members throughout the UK rail industry!
Over the past ten years, Altius has gone from strength to strength, building strong relationships with clients and suppliers alike, developing client centric solutions and, most of all, delivering an exceptional service resulting in improved supply chain compliance across any industry sector.
