 The Heating and Ventilating Contractors' Association (HVCA) has signed up to a Code of Practice
which has been developed by the Confederation of British Industry’s Trade Association Forum to promote best
practice amongst its members, and so raise their overall quality and
effectiveness.
According to TA Forum chairman
Andrew Large, the time is right for
his organisation to take a more active role in benchmarking the activities
of trade associations. “The adoption of a Code of Practice should also
demonstrate to Government, parliamentarians, regulatory bodies and other
stakeholders that TA Forum members are prepared to set standards for the
quality of their work – and be judged by them”, Mr Large insisted.
“As the premier trade
association representing mechanical services contractors, HVCA has been
instrumental in raising and maintaining standards across construction and
building services engineering. It is entirely appropriate, therefore, that it
should be equally committed to the promotion of quality across the trade
association sector itself”, said chief executive Robert Higgs.
