iForce, the fastest growing supply chain business in the UK, has successfully secured the prestigious Investors in People (IIP) Gold Standard. The company earned special praise for its commitment to its people, how the business encourages leadership, and the emphasis it places on training and coaching.

iForce was first awarded a Silver accreditation in 2013, a status that was re-confirmed in February 2016. However, as the company had come close to achieving Gold status at that time, the decision was taken to seek a further assessment in 2017 with the aim of converting [Silver into Gold](https://www.financedigest.com/inmobi-wins-gold-silver-bronze-mma-smarties-mena-awards-named-technology-provider-of-the-year-for-fourth-consecutive-year.html "InMobi Wins Gold, Silver, Bronze MMA SMARTIES MENA Awards, Named “Technology Provider of the Year” for Fourth Consecutive Year"). The improved accreditation followed a comprehensive assessment by IiP assessors, evaluating the organisation’s values, effective business planning, [leadership and management](https://www.financedigest.com/leadership-vs-management-can-you-be-good-at-both.html "Leadership vs. Management – Can You Be Good At Both?") capability, and performance measurement. iForce employs over 950 people at 11 sites across the UK.

Gold status has been achieved by just 3% of the 15,000 organisations that are recognised as IiP organisations, located across 75 countries worldwide. The IiP Standard provides a practical framework for [improving business](https://www.financedigest.com/how-can-call-tracking-improve-your-business.html "How can call tracking improve your business?") performance and competitiveness through good practice in people management.

Brian Gaunt, [Chief Executive Officer](https://www.financedigest.com/impact-com-names-hubspot-veteran-kim-walsh-as-chief-growth-officer.html "impact.com Names HubSpot Veteran Kim Walsh as Chief Growth Officer"), iForce, said: “An award of this nature can only be achieved through the combined efforts of all of the colleagues in our business and I would like to congratulate them for all of their hard work. This accreditation points to our [continuing efforts to make iForce a great place to work](https://www.financedigest.com/hybrid-working-and-the-continued-security-challenges-for-financial-organisations.html "Hybrid working and the continued security challenges for financial organisations"), where colleagues are valued for the contribution that they make to the success of the business.”

IIP Auditor Mike Bramall said: “iForce ‘s achievement in attaining the ‘Gold’ Investors in People accreditation is testament to their focus on people, the [quality](https://www.financedigest.com/av-power-conditioners-market-will-gain-traction-over-2026-owing-to-improvements-in-audio-and-video-quality.html "AV Power Conditioners Market Will Gain Traction Over 2026 Owing To Improvements In Audio And Video Quality") of their people-management practices and their search for continuous improvement.”
