Achilles Joint Qualification System

For the Norwegian/Danish Continental shelf

By Atle Gjertsen

Achilles Joint Qualification System

• Initiated by the Norwegian Departement of Oil and Energy (Olje & energidepartementet) towards Hydro, Statoil, BP og Shell

• The start from 1990 was that some activities regarding suppliers could be done jointly between the operators.

It was to establish a more cost effective system accross operators.

Make room for estableshment of cross company networks.

Suppliers would have one point of contact to qualify for the industry.

What is Achilles Joint Qualification System ?

• The system is developed to cover most procurement needs within the user companies.

• It is the users' objective to establish the majority of tender lists based on this qualification system.

• = Effective use of own resource and standardised pre-qualification procedures in a defined market
