&lt;h2&gt;It's in your data&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;After nearly a decade working across UK rail, power, utilities, and civils sectors , we've noticed something.

They failed because of how - or in some cases whether the right data was captured progressively.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
