## What Stands Out

The UK Transportation Infrastructure sector, based on this limited data, paints a picture of significantly better payment practices than the national average. However, with only two companies reviewed, the representativeness of this score – a whopping 36.2 points above the UK average – is questionable. Given this limited scope, drawing broad conclusions must be done with caution.

## Best Payers

1. [CALEDONIAN MARITIME ASSETS LIMITED](/company-search/SC001854/caledonian-maritime-assets-limited) - 93.83/100
2. [VOLKERSERVICES LIMITED](/company-search/03998767/volkerservices-limited) - 78.5/100

## Worst Payers

1. [VOLKERSERVICES LIMITED](/company-search/03998767/volkerservices-limited) - 78.5/100
2. [CALEDONIAN MARITIME ASSETS LIMITED](/company-search/SC001854/caledonian-maritime-assets-limited) - 93.83/100

(Note: As only two companies were analysed, the 'Best' and 'Worst' lists simply reiterate the top and bottom scores.)

## Regional Patterns

Scotland (93.8/100) shows a higher average PaymentCheck Score than the East of England (78.5/100), but this is based on just one company from each region, making it difficult to extrapolate any meaningful trends. More data is required to determine if this is a genuine regional difference.

The takeaway: While the average PaymentCheck Score for the two transportation infrastructure companies surveyed is 86.2/100 – much higher than the UK average of 50.0/100 – the extremely small sample size necessitates further investigation before conclusions are drawn.
