As a minimum Aqwest requires all vendors to provide evidence of Product and Public Liability and evidence of Workers Compensation or Personal Injury and Accident. Aqwest may require you to provide additional insurance certificates of currency when bidding for new work
If your organisation is awarded work by Aqwest your insurance must also be maintained for the duration of any supply or performance of goods and/or services.
It is your responsibilty to ensure you supply Aqwest with new insurance certificates of currency as and when your insurances are renewed.
