We are constantly reviewing our practices in this ever changing situation.
How we are operating within the Coronavirus situation to keep staff and clients safe whilst maintaining all our business operations.
For our clients we are here, operating as usual, on the end of a phone or email and also Skype should you wish. All our technical managers are fully operational, resolving your design challenges, proposing the right flat roof waterproofing systems, green or blue roofs, and PV solutions. Our
technical department is working remotely to create tapered insulation schemes, providing technical calculations and specifications. Our accustomed service and support continues - the one thing we aren’t doing is arranging unnecessary meetings in your office.
Roof surveys and site inspections are still being carried out where required as generally these can be conducted unaccompanied, allowing us to follow all recommendations for health protection without close contact with anyone else.
For the supply of roof products for Bauder installations we manufacture from eight factories across Germany and Austria and currently all production facilities are fully operational. The movement of our goods remain largely unaffected across Europe and some additional border checks are taking place which obviously takes slightly longer than usual.
To ensure there is no interruption in our supply, we have increased stock levels here in the UK and currently hold in excess of £1 million worth of
extra stock (50% increase on our usual levels). All our stock is distributed through four separate warehouses to mitigate the impact of a possible lockdown of one of our distribution sites.
For our staff, over 70% are working remotely with minimal personnel at our HQ in Ipswich and we are wholeheartedly following all the Government’s advice and recommendations. As well as all the fundamental hygiene precautions, we have vetoed Company gatherings and internal meetings and are insisting on minimal contact between Bauder staff.
So, when we say
“it's business as usual” we really mean it. We are absolutely here for all our clients, customers, staff, their families and all those we interact with in our day to day activities. Just get in contact in the normal way and we will provide our usual, dependable and reliable service.
