I am very pleased to report that Project Amber is now in its delivery phase and the collaborative team is making excellent progress against its objectives. The programme is gaining pace each day and will continue for a further 4 or 5 weeks during which time all service providers will demonstrate their products and processes.
Will Britain, and his team, have invested a huge amount of time, effort and energy into making Project Amber a successful collaboration. We are now keen to make sure that we realise the full potential of the project by sharing the learning and experience of the various products and processes with you.
We are also very keen to arrange site visits or meetings for you so you may witness the works or speak directly with the service providers about your local challenges. The following table provides a brief description of the services provided by each of the participating contractors which may help you identify the most appropriate organisations.
