"Accessing academic expertise has allowed us to develop our business in a unique way. Through the Productivity Programme we were able to work with a University of Lincoln academic with the knowledge and expertise to help us create a Carbon Footprint Tool, the first of its kind for our industry. The academic was happy to work with both ourselves and an environmental company to develop the tool. The process was straightforward and communication was brilliant. I would highly recommend this programme."
