THE FINAL RESULT:  "'Bunch of Tools Ltd' are the 2025 Champions"

After taking what seemed like a potentially decisive lead going into the final round, in the end "Bunch of Tools Ltd" were pegged back by the chasing pack, but held on to become the Oxford Brookes University Enginuity 2025 Champions with an impressive finishing score of 1,650 pts.

Behind the Champions "Apex Ltd" held onto Runners Up spot with 6% growth that enabled them to close the gap to just 29 points to "Bunch of Tools Ltd", and they were matched in their growth by "Botch Jobs Ltd" who were not far behind in 3rd. The best performance in the final round came from "Sensational Bricks" with an eye catching 10% improvement that lifted them up to 4th.

In the final analysis all 9 teams finished with stronger, more sustainable companies than when they took over in period 5, a testament to the skill and application shown by the management teams in what was a roller coaster of a journey through 2 simulated years of management, with the second one particularly tough with the increased pressure to win new work.
