Driving Transformation
Supporting Enterprise Development (ED)
Although the company's core business is engineering, Babcock has also selected entrepreneurs within business sectors that are indirectly related to engineering for its Enterprise Development programme, in order to reach more deserving people who need assistance. Young entrepreneurs from the fields of construction, recruitment, gardening, engineering, security and cleaning, all who have the potential to become valuable suppliers to Babcock, have been selected to participate in Babcock's ED programme run by Raizcorp.
