It's been a busy week for us with two more asbestos consultancies signing up for asbestos software Alpha Tracker.
We've been competing in both cases with a competitor so why was Alpha Tracker chosen? In any demo we show off Alpha Tracker's ease of use, flexibility and comprehensive feature-set including a popular client portal. That's a good start.
More importantly, though, we are able to demonstrate 10+ year business relationships with our clients and that is so important to us. Even in quiet times, we have continued to invest in our software & our support arrangements to try to keep us ahead of the competition. We try to be easy to deal with, reasonably priced and interested in "partnerships" with our customers and, in the main, our customers have valued these attributes and ambitions.
If we can help you to improve your asbestos consultancy, get in touch. We'd be delighted to hear from you.

Asbestoprobe, Alpha Tracker and the Professor of Statistics
The Asbestoprobe project continues to move forward and the team at Start Software (Asbestoprobe's software partner, see http://robinbennett.blogspot.co.uk/2016/09/start-software-and-asbestoprobe.html) are using their experience of data collected by asbestos surveyors to help inform the testing regime for this innovative new hardware.
This week Start Software's director Robin Bennett has been working with Professor Simon Wilson (Trinity College, Dublin) to begin the analysis of Alpha Tracker asbestos data patterns in order to formulate the best testing strategy for Asbestoprobe.
