Grow your business. Prove your competence.

Grow your business. Prove your competence.

The expectations placed on contractors are changing.

Major contractors, clients and regulators increasingly expect businesses to demonstrate competence, compliance and professional standards.

The BESA Member Pledge reflects this shift, with leading contractors strengthening their supply chains by working with businesses that can demonstrate real capability.

For contractors and specialists, this represents an opportunity to stand out.

MEMBER PLEDGE - 1

More than Membership

Joining BESA is not simply about meeting a requirement. It is about strengthening your business.

BESA membership provides access to a team of industry experts who support contractors in improving standards, developing capability and demonstrating competence to clients and partners.

Our goal is to help good businesses succeed and grow.

Independent verification of your capability

BESA membership is built around the Competence Assessment Standard (CAS).

BESA Members are audited on a regular basis including:

Business Management Review

Ensuring that suitable governance, financial stability, insurance, quality controls, training arrangements and safe working systems are in place.

Technical Audit

An unique, independent technical audit that verifies real capability. Technical audits are conducted on-site and review recent works undertaken.

The relevant technical checklist under the CAS is used to verify:

CAS KITEMARK-1
    • Compliance with legislation and regulatory requirements
    • Alignment with recognised industry standards and specifications
    • Adherence to manufacturer’s instructions
    • Safe and competent workmanship

It does not just ask whether a company has the right paperwork. It verifies that they can actually do the job. 

A Process Designed to Support Improvement

The CAS audit is not designed to catch businesses out.

It is designed to help them improve.

Many contractors value the audit because it provides expert feedback on how their business operates and highlights opportunities to strengthen processes and standards.

Helping You Win Work

Being able to demonstrate competence and professionalism gives contractors a real commercial advantage.

BESA members benefit from:

• increased credibility with major contractors
• access to BESA member supply chains
• stronger client confidence
• improved reputation across the industry

As more contractors adopt the Member Pledge, businesses that can prove their competence will be better positioned to secure opportunities.

Our membership team and technical specialists will guide you through the process step by step.

The aim is simple: To help capable businesses demonstrate their expertise, improve their operations and grow with confidence.
