PERIOD 6:  "The 'FORTRESS' is breached, as 'JMRG Construction Management make their move"

After the impressive growth figures posted in period 5, not unexpectedly period 6 proved to be a much tougher quarter. This was largely driven by the companies being unable to win as much work as they had previously, with the corresponding reduction in forward workload and margin KPIs.

One of the casualties in period 6 were the leaders from period 5, "FORTRESS", who lost out on a key bid, and with no plan B in place, their forward workload and margin suffered, and they deteriorated by 7%.

This opened the door for "JMRG Construction Management" to walk right through it with a highly impressive 13% growth, the best posted in the round, that shot them up 6 places and into pole position with 1,485 pts. Behind the new leaders, but only by just 4 points, are "Dozer Construction Limited" who also a good period with solid 8% growth that moved them up one place to second.
