Paddy Collins from The Royal Bank of Scotland, a member of the judging panel, says: "The business is going from strength to strength and the Syscap CEO was able to demonstrate real passion around customer service. In terms of corporate social responsibility staff were fully engaged and there was a clearly understood strategy for the business going forward. Overall a fabulous business and worthy winners."

Philip White, CEO of Syscap, says: "Winning the Company of the Year award is true testament to Syscap’s success over the last few years, and recognition of just how far we’ve come. Our achievements are a product of greater efficiency, a long-term commitment to staff development, stronger relationships with business partners and a widening of the net beyond the UK market. I’m delighted Syscap has won this award - and we celebrated in style at the ceremony." 

Each entrant was assessed on business performance and management, business strategy and implementation, its processes for researching and developing new products and services, customer care, marketing, employee communication and their involvement in business decisions, and its contribution to the community, including steps to protect the environment.
