The British Board of Agrément (BBA) drives industry safety by providing services that help clients create accountability and mitigate risk. Since 1966, the BBA has built its position as a independent certification body in the Construction and Civil Engineering Industries.

A rich heritage of expertise and skill, as well as rigorous and robust processes and procedures equips us with an acute focus on construction innovation of the future. Through extensive product and system research, testing and certification, auditing, and inspection, the BBA helps to instil confidence throughout the construction and manufacturing supply chain in both the UK and Global marketplaces.

The BBA was founded with a belief that experience is worth celebrating. That’s why our people are diverse and dedicated to innovation and continuous improvement, operating with the highest level of integrity, and constantly striving to delight our clients, and deliver on our commitments.

We exist to drive quality and build confidence in the places we live, work and play in. Here’s why organisations choose to work with us.

Effecting change is not something done in isolation. That’s why we work under a framework provided by the UK’s national accreditation body, UKAS.

The Charter is a growing commitment; as an organisation that is transforming, there are always areas where we can do better, and so it is important for us to keep building.

The BBA has a role to play in the construction ecosystem. We take our role seriously and we expect others in that ecosystem to do the same. That is why we engage closely with organisations and initiatives who share a collective vision on quality and safety. Find out more about who we work alongside.
