As the teams entered the second half of the final there was growth almost across the board,
apart from "HatchGPT" (Hatch, South Africa), who undid the progress
made in the previous period by deteriorating 4% which moved them back 5 places.
However, encouragingly every team did manage to win new work, and particularly impressive with 4 jobs secured were
teams from Down Under, "Antipodean Pavlovs" (Jacobs, Australia / New Zealand) and
"Stantogether" (Stantec, Australia), with the latter also
recording the best performance and positional gain with a 15% improvement and 4-place gain that
enable them to move away from the foot of the table.
At the top of the table "The Mighty Turtles" (Parsons, United States)
became the first team to hold onto top spot in the Final with a solid 5% growth that moved them onto
2,833 pts, and they are beginning to ingnite hopes within Parsons
that they may be able to emulate their last success when "It's Nothing Parsonal" were Champions in 2021.
However, still well in contention are the leading pack, led by the "Fanatics" (AtkinsRealis, India)
and "Whatever it takes" (Stantec, Italy), who swopped places,
and coming up on the rails are "Infraco Invasion" (Infraco Consulting, UK),
which will please the ENGINUITY CRYSTAL BALL.
With 2 rounds to go in the Final the tension is rising, and one decision, good or bad, could swing
the outcome of this year's Competition.
