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. The result was changes throughout the league table, and crucially in the leading positions.

As 18 of the 20 teams posted negative growth figures, two teams defied the odds. The "Diamond Group" with only 1% growth were still a cut above the rest as they surged 13 places up the table and into second place, and not far behind the new leaders, the "SKFAMM Group Of Company", who tookover pole position despite just holding their own with 1,364 pts. "ActioNexus" moved up 8 places to 3rd despite a slight 2% decline.
