telent excel in Highways Agency assessment

 

27 March 2008 – telent, a leading provider of technology services, today announced that it has achieved a high score following the recent Capability Assessment Tool (CAT3) programme undertaken on behalf of the Highways Agency. The capability assessment now includes several new indicators increasing the focus on diversity, innovation, risk management, corporate social responsibility and putting customers at the heart of the Agency’s business.

The Highways Agency uses the results of CAT programs, as well as past performance, to select the most suitable suppliers to deliver the best value solutions and services. The assessors made reference to telent’s long established history, which has resulted in the development of robust and proven approaches. More specifically, the assessment team was impressed with the way in which the organisation has managed the transition from Marconi to telent.

telent has over 30 years' experience of providing integrated services and solutions to clients in the UK Road industry and we are extremely proud to have been awarded such a high score of 170.2 by the Highways Agency.” commented Peter Eccleson, Director and General Manager of Highways at telent. “The CAT3 program ranks us amongst the top of the Highways Agency’s supply chain particularly in technology support and reinforces telent’s core values of service, commitment and value.”

The level of CAT score positions telent as one of the UK’s leading technology service providers both with the Highways Agency and also with potential partners in joint ventures and consortia. The assessment is designed to help organisations identify strengths and areas for development in capabilities needed for a wide range of work, including the maintenance and improvement of roads.
