Acumen are one our biggest supporters and we’re delighted to have support from across the pond in the US. They recognised that we were doing something pretty special and were more than happy to help fund some of the trip for us.
Recognized as a thought leader in project analytics, Acumen was born from a recognized need for improved insight into project challenges and, more importantly, tools and techniques to help mitigate these challenges before they occur. Acumen has developed an enterprise project analysis software that is second to none in providing both insight into potential project pitfalls leading to better project planning and execution.
