Please take time to watch this video, it's an eye opener and shows how Supermarkets are shafting our British Farmers good name, and abusing the Red Tractor Scheme.
Having worked for an engineering company that did work for TESCO I got to see just how unfairly they treat their suppliers and staff, and how poorly their buildings are maintained.TESCO Buyers, tender find the lowest quotes, and then try to screw even more reductions in price from the lowest three, effectively re-tendering. The cheapest price is not always the best choice, and other factors need to be considered when employing anyone to do anything.
They tried this strategy with Construction services from Architects, Structural, Electrical and Mechanical Engineers and other construction professionals and it got to the point that we told them, appoint the company that is willing to reduce their price further and then when they go bust, come back to us and we will give you a new quote to pick up the mess they leave, and complete the work.
It happened, we had to increase our bid to allow for the additional work involved in picking up the pieces, and the TESCO Buyers found out you can't screw down Construction professional in the same way you can suppliers of food stuffs.
