MTR's strangle-hold weakens

MTR’s New Lines New Minds still hold firm in first place but Arup’s ‘They think its all Ova’ have speeded past MTR’s ‘New Lines New Minds Engenetic’ into second place. With Atkins HK’s ‘NOVA’ having slipped to seventh, AURECON’s ‘Unicon’ move up to fourth, with the biggest improvers at the top, MottMac’s ‘MM Money makers’ now claiming fifth place climbing over Amey’s ‘Amey MDP’. We’ve had an Atkins HK team in the last two finals at Loughborough so ‘NOVA’ need to tread careful, especially as AURECON’s ‘Aurecon Global’ are snapping at their heals.

Big improvers from 34th to 11th are AECOM’s ‘AEOCOManders’ overtaking their colleagues ‘AECOMeritocracy’ who have slipped to 16th. Other big gainers are SKM’s ‘Southern Konstruction Management’ and Severn Trent Water’s ‘STW asset creation’, whilst ’Uncharted territory’ from CIOB have slipped a little.

One other Atkins HK team ‘JC Bear’ has climbed from 78th to 60th, two more gains of this size would put them in the final.

So what we are seeing is that there is plenty of churn and significant movements in both directions. This time it took an improvement of about 20% to make a real gain. The six finalists are by no means settled.

The market is tightening, companies need to be the right size for their share of the market, managing the capital base to ensure the company has the right capacity is one of the key factors. But there again the correct marketing effort, winning contracts, attracting the best project managers, staffing projects and satisfying clients as well as paying a good dividend are all important too!

 

Preliminary results, subject to change.
