PERIOD 7:  "'Bob Builder Ltd' stun their rivals!"

After 3 rounds it is already clear that there is not a lot between many of the teams, and this was demonstrated in period 7 as the lead changed hands once again as "Bob Builder Ltd" stunned their rivals with an amazing 15% improvement, easily the best posted, that shot them up 6 places and into pole position with 1,357 pts. "Woodrock Constructions Ltd" climbed one place to second, and just 4 points clear of "JAWM InnovaConstructs" and previous leaders "BurMen Builds", tied in 3rd. Further down the table other teams need to focus in particular on bidding strategy, and making full use of their capital base to win as much work as possible, and then managing that work as profitably as possible.
