Our Clients
One of the Company’s prime objectives is Client satisfaction and job satisfaction for all employees and to provide a professional building service which best meets the needs of our Clients.
With a proactive and positive approach working closely with our Clients and their consultants, in a collaborative environment we find solutions to meet and exceed their requirements.
Our philosophy is one of listening to our Clients and their consultants, understanding their needs as well as offering practical, technical or financial solutions when required. Recognising the pressures of our Clients’ activities, we place great emphasis on minimising their disruption.
The Company’s reputation has been built on quality and reliability resulting from years of commitment and practical experience, having an open mind to advances in technology and systems as well as responsiveness to market influences.
With the resilience, which comes from financial strength, committed employees and loyal supply chain members, we are proud of our contribution to profitable partnerships with our Clients and their consultants.
Our Supply Chain
The Company has developed strong, open working relationships with its supply chain and continues to do so as new opportunities arise and through collaborative working, supply chain members, in particular, the smaller companies have become part of the extended team and work seamlessly with our staff.
Our commitment to the local supply chain is a key part of our business strategy; our involvement in a project can bring benefits to local areas through increasing local employment and providing opportunities for local SMEs, suppliers and subcontractors. The Company is committed to supporting local economies and providing opportunities for development in the areas where we operate, and also recognize that using locally sourced materials helps to reduce our carbon footprint, by reducing travel distances for deliveries.
Currently, 91% of the Company’s turnover is spent in South West Wales whilst 85% of materials and subcontractors are sourced from the SA postcode. This has been achieved by adopting the philosophy of i2i SME Friendly Procurement Guide.
As a Llanelli based Company we have developed an approved supply chain of appropriate trade contractors and suppliers to deliver projects within the South West Wales area and include trade contractors and suppliers that we have successfully worked with on similar frameworks.
Including a local supplier/subcontractor within a supply chain keeps money circulating closer to where it is earned and this is described as the Local Multiplier Effect.
The Company is proud to state that when judged against i2i Community Benefits Calculator, the Company’s Welsh multiplier is well above the average at £1.91. This is very favourable when compared with the Welsh average of £1.76.
With an intent to maintain a higher than norm average, T.A.D. Builders Ltd will benchmark local suppliers and subcontractors.
T.A.D. Builders Ltd will adopt best practice for contracting with the supply chain and align their systems and paperwork to give efficiencies that can be passed through to the Framework Authorities/Clients.
