What our clients say
Terry Wicks (superstar). Terry has been very helpful over the last week. He popped into Lavington Street each morning to check the system. He made changes to see if we could right the wrong. He explains everything in a language that I understand. In other words, he doesn’t blind you with science. Terry is also a lovely chap and an asset to your team.
The way your team have applied themselves and delivered over the past 18 months is second to none and this has only reinforced the relationship. It has also given me kudos as I brought you in, so thank you. I know that Peter and Danny are both new employees but whoever is doing the recruitment needs a huge pat on the back. They have been incredible. Technically, attitude, application are all top draw. They really are (after 1 month) the go-to guys on site. Feedback from colleagues, staff and students has been positive in regards to reaction times and job done first time.
Greig has done a great job on the monthly report and we spoke with all parties on our to keep the system working as efficiently and raise any concerns at the earliest opportunity. Please say a special thanks to Greig for his desire to make sure the Planet PPM system works as well as possible to not only achieve the SLA’s but also as a system to make sure we have a reliable and robust record of the good work we carry out on a month to month basis.
