Sutton Coldfield 's local MP and Secretary of State for
International Development , the Rt Hon Andrew Mitchell, rushed
straight from a meeting with the Prime Minister to be guest of
honour at a reception to celebrate two land-mark achievements at
CM2000.
The company's award winning technology,
CallConfirmLive!, monitors home care delivery, protecting people
receiving care at home and those caring for them. The system now
logs over a million calls a week and Mr Mitchell was delighted to
present a certificate and gift vouchers to Oxfordshire Care Worker
Catherine Eggleton who logged the 150 millionth call.
Mr Mitchell congratulated Catherine on the important
work she does with the vulnerable in the community and highlighted
the contribution CallConfirmLive! makes to the confidence and
security of those wishing to remain at home in old
age.
CM2000 were also celebrating being one of the first 1000
companies worldwide to achieve BS25999 - the British Standard for
Business Continuity - an accreditation CM2000 believe is critical
for companies providing hosted technology in the care
sector.
Presenting the award was Neil Hannah, Global Director of
Certification for the British Standards Institution who said, "In
these days of scandal and mistrust, having independent verification
that you have solid plans in place to ensure business continuity is
the only way to prove it to your customers." He congratulated
CM2000 for making it through the rigorous accreditation
process.
Peter Longman, Managing Director of CM2000 said,
"Today's event celebrates the vital, and often unrecognised, role
of Care Workers and also highlights the work that goes on behind
the scenes to ensure the systems they rely on are robust and
operate to the highest possible standards."
Andrew Mitchell MP concluded the proceedings by saying,
"We are proud to have successful, growing businesses like CM2000 in
Sutton."
