The Compost Certification Scheme appoints independent auditors to assess labs

Posted: 13 May, 2015. Written by Justyna

REAL is pleased to announce that it has appointed Heriot-Watt University to carry out independent audits to check CCS Appointed Laboratories’ conformance with their Terms and Conditions.

REAL received a number of tenders which were assessed and discussed by a selection panel over the course of a number of evaluation meetings. Two of the proposals we received were rated as exceptionally good. After a difficult process we are confident that we have appointed the right organisation to carry out the task in hand.  

We would like to congratulate Heriot-Watt University (HWU) team for winning the contract! The independent auditor team will be led by Dr Thomas Aspray at HWU and will also include specialists from Scottish Water.

We look forward to working with Thomas and his team to ensure the highest performance of CCS Appointed Laboratories.
