Achilles Joint Qualification System is a cost effective system where suppliers in an easy and uniform way can advice details on their company and products/services to potential customers. The oil companies and main contractors together represent an annual market of aprox. 80 billion NOK.
The system is developed to cover most procurement needs within the participating companies. It is the subscribers' objective to establish the majority of tender lists based on this qualification system.
The qualification system is a result of the establishment of the EU internal market and the EEA agreement. Laws and regulations regulating procurements made by oil and gas companies with production licenses on the Norwegian and Danish continental shelves require that suppliers of goods and services are selected on the basis of objective criteria and based on public announcement. These criteria are met in the Achilles Joint Qualification System.
NOTiCE - creating new business opportunities
JQS can offer their qualified suppliers the additional service Notice. NOTiCE alerts suppliers registered with Achilles' databases to contract opportunities as published in the OJEU (Official Journal of the European Union). Notice will greatly assist your company in targeting new business.
The OJEU is central to all regulated procurement in Europe and publishes contract opportunities for approximately 400,000 purchasing organisations with a total value of £100 billion per year. NOTiCE is designed to simplify the tendering process, using the OJEU, for both purchasers and suppliers.
