London – March 07, 2014 – Attenda Limited, the Business Critical IT company, today announced its congratulations to UCAS for winning the Best Cloud Project Public Sector category award in the coveted UK Cloud Awards 2014.
The award recognises UCAS as a real success story relating to the adoption of cloud services and the transformational impact that was achieved.

Commenting on the award, Mark Fowle, CEO, Attenda, says, “We extend our warm congratulations to the UCAS team for being recognised for their tremendous work in delivering a successful 2013 Confirmation & Clearing, and we are delighted that Attenda could make a significant contribution to the project execution.”

Additionally, Attenda worked with AWS Architects to implement the architecture specified by UCAS and AWS, as an integral part of the overall cloud solution.
“We are delighted to be recognised with the Award and we have Attenda to thank for stepping up from day one, as a fully committed and cohesive team; behaving like genuine, committed colleagues as part of the overall UCAS project team.
