IN-COUNTRY VALUE / NATIONAL CONTENT
Our model of local execution to global standards sets us apart. In-country value (ICV) / National Content allows us to create local supply chains that allow small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to flourish, upskill and train local workforces, and implement community programs that leave a positive and lasting impact beyond the assets we build and operate.
Our competitive advantage
As well as being the right thing to do, we see the creation of in-country value as a source of competitive advantage. It helps us operate globally and bid on challenging projects, while benefiting from the local economies.
Our approach to ICV
ICV / National Content is aligned to the way we operate and goes beyond our contractual or regulatory requirements. It is one of the focal points of our strategic framework and we aim for sector-leading local delivery.
We continue to procure a large proportion of goods and services from local vendors and suppliers, support a significant number of local jobs, and work to enhance the capabilities of local people. While some governments require us to do this, we typically go beyond our contractual and regulatory obligations regarding local content in most cases.
