Eztek is delighted to announce that it is now a registered supplier with Achilles First Point Assessment Ltd (FPAL).

FPAL is an industry-run community of operators, contractors and suppliers working in collaboration to promote a fair and transparent supply chain.

Eztek, which has more than 22 years of experience in the design and manufacture of harsh environment and hazardous area electronics, can now use the FPAL platform to share its capabilities and strengths with a wide range of prominent companies in the UK and European oil and gas industries.

FPAL is used by more than 100 buyers from oil and gas companies, including those involved in decommissioning projects. Achilles works to ensure that suppliers’ information is accurate, via data validation and desktop and physical audits. With such a rigorous checking process FPAL provides a trusted ‘shop window’, where buyers can easily access pertinent information about potential suppliers, including performance feedback reviews.

Eztek’s general manager Robin Hunter, explains why this was the next logical step for the company: "In 2013, we gained ISO 9001: 2008 certification, demonstrating our commitment to quality and constant improvement.

"Now, because we are registered with FPAL, prospective buyers can see how existing clients rate us and how they have benefited from our technology."
