illumr have been approved to join the Joint Supply Chain Accreditation Register (JOSCAR) which enables companies in the Aerospace, Defence, Security & Space sectors to identify qualified suppliers.
The accreditation mark is valued by some of the largest purchasers in the defence community and indicates that illumr have been through the process and have demonstrated commitment and appropriate credentials.
JOSCAR covers company capability, accreditations’, information security, corporate social responsibility, financial history and ethical operations. This cross-sector collaborative solution reduces the time, cost, resources and duplication currently needed to provide information.
What is JOSCAR?
JOSCAR is a collaborative tool used by a growing number of prime contractors in the aerospace, defence and security industry to act as a single repository for pre-qualification and compliance information.
The cross-sector collaborative solution reduces the time, cost, resources, and duplication currently needed to provide information to major prime customers in the defence aerospace sectors. JOSCAR holds common supplier information in a central system, allowing information to be accessed by all participating buying organisations.
Why is accreditation important?
To attain accreditation, illumr was assessed across a wide range of appropriate business parameters including our policy on counterfeit materials, insurance and third-party certification, health and safety, environmental and sustainability, IT security, anti-bribery and corruption, product safety and quality.
JOSCAR membership is designed to improve efficiency of both the supplier and buyer communities by ensuring that companies only use products and solutions of the highest quality and that comply with best practices.
We are pleased that we have satisfied the requirements to become fully compliant on the JOSCAR supplied accreditation register. Becoming a member assures our clients and partners that the service we provide is of the highest quality and comply with the industry standards.
