Altrad Generation Achieves FORS Gold Accreditation

Altrad Generation is proud to announce that the business has achieved FORS Gold Accreditation, the highest level of recognition within the Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme. This accomplishment marks a significant milestone in our ongoing commitment to safety, sustainability, and operational excellence.

Why FORS Matters

Why FORS Matters

FORS is a nationally recognised accreditation scheme that sets rigorous standards for fleet operations. It promotes best practice in safety, efficiency, and environmental responsibility across the transport industry. More than 4,700 companies participate in FORS across the UK, including many high performing organisations in construction, logistics, and critical national infrastructure, which positions Gold accreditation as a mark of excellence shared by some of the most respected operators in the market.

What This Means for Our Customers and Our Business

What This Means for Our Customers and Our Business

Achieving FORS Gold reinforces to our customers that they are working with a company committed to the highest level of professional standards. It provides clear validation that our operations prioritise the safety of colleagues, suppliers, and vulnerable road users, while also demonstrating leadership in environmental responsibility. FORS Gold gives our clients additional confidence that every delivery, regardless of complexity or location, is supported by rigorous procedures and a deeply embedded safety culture.

For Altrad Generation, this accreditation confirms that our internal systems, training programmes, and operational controls consistently exceed baseline legal requirements. It strengthens our reputation as a leading operator in our sector and signals our drive to continually raise the bar for best practice.

How We Achieved It

How We Achieved It

Our FORS journey began in 2009 when we joined to meet contractual requirements. It soon became clear that FORS aligned with our own organisational ethos, particularly our commitment to going beyond compliance. We achieved Bronze in 2010 and have maintained it every year, using the annual audit as a powerful validation tool for our policies and procedures.

In 2016, we progressed to Silver for several strategic reasons that strengthened both our operations and our customer offering. Achieving Silver allowed us to clearly demonstrate that safety underpins every aspect of our fleet activity, giving customers added confidence in the standards we uphold. It also gave our teams access to enhanced development tools, including FORS E learning modules and the Silver SUD course, strengthening the capabilities of our drivers and managers. In addition, aligning FORS audits with our own internal audit processes created a powerful framework for identifying improvements and reinforcing a culture of continuous development across the business.

FORS Gold, achieved in December 2025, reflects years of sustained focus on excellence. It is the culmination of collaborative effort at every level of the business. From frontline drivers to operational managers and support teams, every colleague has played a part in embedding the high standards required to reach the top tier of accreditation.

Looking Ahead

Looking Ahead

FORS Gold is a proud moment for Altrad Generation, but it is not the end of our journey. It is a benchmark that motivates us to continue innovating and leading within our sector. Our next milestone is to build on this accreditation and explore new ways to further enhance safety, sustainability, and efficiency across our fleet operations.

With FORS Gold now secured, we look forward to the future with confidence and excitement as we continue to ensure that Altrad Generation remains a trusted partner recognised for excellence across every aspect of our fleet operations.
