PERIOD 8:  "With one round to go, 'Apex Construction' reassert themselves at the top"

In the penultimate round of the Competition "Apex Construction" completed their turnaround with 17% growth, the best in the round, to firmly restablish themselves back at the top of the table with 1,688 pts, and it is certainly theirs to lose in the final round.

In another period of mixed results, "Evergreen Construction" dropped back one place to scond despite an impressive 12% improvement, and they will be hoping for a slip up from the leaders going down the finishing straight. Further back "Nova Construction" managed to hold onto 3rd despite their capital base not supporting any new work in period 8, but "Vertex Build Construction" will be disappointed on lose out on 2 key contracts with higher bids than the winning tender.

With just one round to go each team will be looking to finish strongly, and every decision will count in the final reckoning.
