With a value of over £500,000, the contract requires MBA to conduct a full suite of competence assurance activities and is scheduled to continue into 2016 and beyond.

The award of this contract from MODEC follows swiftly after a number of other contract awards.

Despite the challenges we face as an industry, keeping our people safe remains right at the top of the agenda. With this in mind, demonstrating a competent workforce is more important than ever and having a robust and sustainable competence management system will deliver real benefits to any organization - throughout the entire supply chain.”
