A series of contract wins in the first half of 2008 has continued into the

“Capita has made strong progress in 2008. Our businesses across the group
have
performed well and we have secured new and renewed major contracts worth £626m
in the first six months of the year," he said.
"The second half of the year has also started strongly, with a further £187m
of new and renewed contracts secured in July 2008."
"Our successes in 2007 and progress in the first half of 2008 mean that the
ingredients for a successful year are already in place.”
