RALA qualification is an impartial assessment of whether a company has the capacity to carry out contracts in a given sector. The assessment covers the company’s finances, management, staff competence, quality, environmental and safety practices, and references. For clients, the qualification is an easy way to confirm a contractor’s reliability, and in many projects it is already a minimum procurement requirement.
RALA qualification shows that our operations are in good order and that we are committed to high-quality work. It also tells our clients and partners that they can rely on us even on demanding sites, says Timo Redsven, CEO of Team Hemppa.
Verified capability in two sectors
Trust is especially important in construction, where quality, schedule and occupational safety decide a great deal. The RALA assessment reviews a company’s operations from several angles, including financial stability, the qualifications of responsible persons, site practices and completed projects.
The assessment went through things we have invested in heavily in recent years. The process also gave us good feedback that we can use to develop our operations further, Redsven explains.
Installation work in building construction calls for care, schedule management and smooth cooperation with other contractors. Rock construction, in turn, requires precise planning, specialist expertise and a strong safety culture. The qualification now confirms our capabilities in both areas through an external assessment.
A basis for continuous improvement
RALA qualification is an important step for us, but development continues. Keeping the qualification valid requires regular monitoring to ensure that our operations continue to meet the requirements.
