Press Release: 18/12/2024, London – Cambridge Management Consulting (Cambridge MC), a global management consulting firm known for its expertise in telecommunications, and the Trustmarque Group (Trustmarque), a technology solutions provider with deep expertise in Public Sector expertise, have announced a strategic partnership to support local government authorities across the UK to manage the transition from the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) to digital communications, ensuring a smooth and efficient switchover by January 2027. Trustmarque’s Public Sector division was recently named Public Sector Partner of the Year by CRN. They work with local authorities across the country, and will now work closely with Cambridge MC to offer a turnkey PSTN upgrade solution, ensuring that they are ready for the switchover. Through this partnership, Cambridge MC and Trustmarque will augment each other’s technological expertise to provide a complete service wrap for their current and future customers. Specifically, Cambridge MC will bring their consulting success and understanding of the public sector and its unique challenges concerned with the PSTN Switch Off. Trustmarque will bring their deep understanding of the digital solutions required to address the PSTN challenges. Together, this collaboration will provide customers with a holistic strategy toward this transition, including advice, resources and hands-on experience. Commenting on the news, Simon Williams, Chief Executive Officer at the Trustmarque Group said: “I am delighted to announce the collaboration agreement between Cambridge MC and the Trustmarque Group. Together we are committed to empowering local authorities to embrace this transformation with confidence and ensure uninterrupted service delivery to their communities. Cambridge MC’s consultants bring with them decades of telephony expertise.” Tim Passingham, Founder and Chairman of Cambridge Management Consulting, added: “I am very excited to be working with Trustmarque to ensure a seamless transition following the PSTN Switch Off. The switch to digital communications requires expert oversight, and Trustmarque’s technological expertise makes it well equipped to support this move.” Craig Cheney, former Deputy Mayor of Bristol and Managing Partner at Cambridge Management Consulting, said: "The PSTN shutdown presents huge risks to local authorities, universities, the NHS and across the public sector. Making sure you have the right strategy to get the right solutions into the right places at the right time is urgent and vital and could have ramifications across life and limb services as well as implications for traffic control, smoke and fire alarms and much more." What is the PSTN Switch Off? By the end of January 2027, Openreach will undertake a significant transformation in communications by closing the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). Consequently, any PSTN-based products currently utilised by your business will require modification. The PSTN infrastructure supports not only traditional landlines but also voice services. Additionally, widely available broadband services, including fibre-to-the-cabinet (FTTC) and standard broadband (ADSL), are dependent on the PSTN. Craig Cheney , Managing Partner for Public Sector & Education, recently discussed the implications of the the PSTN switch-off will impact the public sector.

PRESS RELEASE - LONDON - 3 NOV 2024 KEY POINTS: New FTSE 250 Report Highlights 'Alarmingly Poor' Response of FTSE250 Companies to Climate Crisis 7% rise in carbon emissions as business growth outpaced effective environmental action 41% of businesses do not have a net zero target date 20% of businesses failing to report Scope 3 emissions Average net zero target date extended by 13 months Download the full report here: https://www.edenseven.co.uk/ftse250 A new sustainability report by edenseven has revealed that 41% of FTSE250 companies are not responding quickly enough to the warnings about the impact of climate change and have still not set or declared a net zero target date. To meaningfully reduce emissions, businesses must set a clear target year to achieve net zero - and this latest report by expert sustainability consultancy, edenseven [corr] highlights a growing gap in climate commitments ahead of the UK’s 2050 net zero goal, and ahead of the 2024 UN Climate Change Conference (UNFCCC COP 29) which is set to convene from 11 to 22 November 2024 in Baku, Azerbaijan. The FTSE250, the bedrock of the UK economy, generates equivalent to over half (53.8%) of the UK’s total emissions, and represents a key benchmark for evaluating the UK’s response to the climate crisis challenge. However, the report reveals that only 14% of the FTSE250 have Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi) accreditation. With the average net zero target date now delayed to December 2044 - 13 months later than last year - reflecting a lack of credible and actionable emission reduction plans. Of particular concern is the report of emissions increasing. The FTSE250’s Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions have increased to 206.4 million tons of CO2e, a 7% increase in like for like emissions compared to the previous year. As this is in line with a 9% increase in revenue, it reflects how businesses are not decarbonising quickly enough to offset their revenue growth and are failing to integrate all-important climate considerations into their growth strategies. The report also highlights a decline in transparency reporting, with 20% of businesses failing to report any Scope 3 emissions at all. These are the indirect emissions from a company’s value chain, which form the largest component, accounting for 86% of a company’s total carbon footprint. Pete Nisbet, managing partner at edenseven, says: “The findings of this latest report are concerning and the response from some of these FTSE250 companies has been alarmingly poor. The reality is, every company, whatever their business, whatever their size, needs to be working towards net zero. The FTSE250 have the potential to lead the UK towards a sustainable future, and it is critical that these businesses take decisive action now. “Managing emissions offers advantages in competitiveness, compliance and credibility. Proactively reducing emissions can cut costs through energy efficiency and waste reduction, while investments in clean technologies lower long-term cost exposure and risk. Stakeholders also place increasing value on those prioritising sustainability and social responsibility, and so it’s crucial for reputation too.” Marvin Rees is a member of the Global Commission for Urban SDG Finance and former Mayor of Bristol. Last week, the Bristol City Leap project received the prestigious ‘2024 Award of Distinction for Public-Private Collaboration in Cities’ at the World Economic Forum's Urban Transformation Summit. Marvin says: “Government action is essential, but government action alone will never be enough. To achieve net zero and avoid catastrophic global warning, we need the private sector not just to deliver, but to provide leadership for others. “This is not an optional extra from the CSR and ESG “To Do” list. Climate change and its social, political and economic consequences must be recognised as being business critical. We need businesses to understand and operate with an understanding that the way they do business today will determine whether the world is more, or less, conducive to their ability to do business in the years and decades ahead.” Global energy transition expert Graeme Cooper also wants to see more commitment from the FTSE250. He says: “I would expect to be seeing real leadership from the FTSE250 by now, but as this report suggests they don’t seem to be moving at a quick enough pace to achieve their own, let alone the country’s, targets. “There are great examples out there where, rather than focusing on reporting, companies are incorporating environmental impact into their short term and leadership targets, and it’s those companies that see the benefits of improved efficiency and reduced running costs. We need to move from warm words to demonstrable action, embed environment targets to individuals’ performance metrics, and change the narrative by showing the benefits achieved through good data and processes and their effect on the bottom line.” ENDS Supplementary FTSE250 company comment David Ville, Group Carbon & Environment Manager: "At Currys, we've decarbonised massively over the last few years, and we're all really proud of the progress we've made. From the new products and propositions we are launching, to the circular business models we are growing and the carbon reduction investments we are making; climate change impacts are integrated in what we do.” About edenseven edenseven is an expert sustainability consultancy that helps organisations achieve quantifiable environmental and financial benefits by designing, improving and running data-driven sustainability strategies. edenseven’s approach is always “Driven by Data” - a fact underlined by their leading carbon accounting and management platform www.cero.earth.
