There is an old saying that 'timing is everything', and that was demonstrated to perfection in
the final round. "Dream Achievers", who had been in the top 6
from the beginning, won a lot of new work in period 9 to bolster their order book, and their soaring
forward workload and margin KPIs enabled them to grow by 11% to leapfrog the 3 teams above them to become the
Birmingham City University / Horizon Campus Enginuity 2024 Champions with a very impressive finishing score of
1,534 pts.
Overall very encouragingly the final round saw growth for the majority of teams, and
behind the Champions previous leaders "Tricrete Global" dropped one place
finish Runners Up, and the "PYRAMIDS" posting an astonishing 20% growth, the best in the round,
to make a late 12 place surge up the table to finish 3rd.
In the final analysis nearly all the 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
4 simulated quarters of management.
