out to a greater level of detail. We believe
AEAT's software and its application to be to a
high standard
KOC
thanks for the professional approach
demonstrated throughout the duration of the work
.. a good solution to a real engineering problem
within the agreed cost and programme. The results
will have a significant impact not only within
