As with FLO,battlebus,WSI will do well to remain independent;given the current interest in the WFM arena ,allied to the ample liquidity in the tech sector.

On Sept 1st,WSI released the following statement,

"WorkPlace Systems International plc ("WorkPlace" or the "Company") is pleased to announce new agreements for its WorkPlace OnLine SaaS solution. Orders have been received from five new clients operating in the Retail sector.
These orders include a significant UK Retail client with more than 1,600 outlets, a North American Retail client with more than 5,000 outlets and a major Dubai Retailer.
The Company is also pleased to announce that an existing On-Premise client of WorkPlace, Rank Group Gaming Division Limited, has contracted to install WorkPlace OnLine following a successful pilot. This is the first major On-Premise WorkPlace client to roll out the OnLine SaaS solution.
The combined orders represent some £1.2m of annual recurring revenue when roll outs are completed.
In addition to the nine pilots previously announced, the Company can also report a further two SaaS pilots from major UK retailers.
"The success of WorkPlace OnLine is now being clearly shown in the UK, North America and the Middle East," commented Barney Quinn, CEO of WorkPlace.
"We believe that the Company's early investment in the Workforce Management SaaS field is beginning to pay off and that the WorkPlace OnLine SaaS product leadership augurs well for the Company's future through its corresponding long term revenue stream."

Hopefully then,any weakness in the figures for their last 12 months trading will be balanced by strong prospects for the current period and beyond.

The accounts were reassuring,indicating that WSI hopefully is about to generate those additional revenues so necessary to justify the current market cap.Should revenues rise by £2.4million in the current year,generating a net profit of say £2million,then this would underpin the current valuation,even though achieving such an increase in scale will be no shoe in.Should it become evident that this target is however a stepping stone for further significant rises in revenues and profitability then 30pence per share could become the platform for a further rerating.A sound if unspectacular investment then.
The firework display could of course arrive at any time should WSI shed its independence.
The current share price performance bodes well,particularly as it remains possible to sell large quantities of stock within the rising price quote.

Can't help you on that one broomsticks.
As regards the current SP,my view remains that WSI will manoeuvre all that is good into its quarter centenary year.
Whilst we have little to go on at present,I remain deeply optimistic in respect of WSI's prospects and its maket cap over the coming 12 months.

Although the WSI share price presently looks becalmed,the MMs' are happy to take 100,000shares within the spread,so it's not too illiquid.
IMO,the next 12 months are when WSI must announce vibrant progess in revenues.
We might of course see sector consolidation within this timescale,in which event its game over.
The cautionary trading update was however particularly deflating for me and the SP, when compared to their earlier update eulogising over the "dramatic increase" in the take up of their SaaS solutions.
Broomsticks,you were not too far out with your 12 pence projection.My view is that the forward looking statement,accompanying the prelims,will move the WSI S.P. into the 17pence ++ region.

Liontrust Investment Services are obviously sufficiently impressed by WSI's more recent progress to be rebuilding their holding;having earlier sold around 4 million shares when the price languished in the 4-8pence region throughout 2009.

They now hold 19,209,887 or 13.03%,being just shy of their peak holding of 19,338,918.

WSI shares could well be on the cusp of another strong rise.

WELL WORTH revisiting the last issuance from WSI just 6 weeks ago when it advised investors that the company was seeing a "DRAMATIC INCREASE" in the take up of its SaaS retail WFM solutions.
Equally well worth remembering is that 90% of the "DRAMATIC INCREASE" in revenues will translate into bottom line profitability and CASH.
WSI shares remain a total buy in my book,as there is every reason to believe that those revenues could ultimately increase to £20million( and beyond),translating into £9 million profits(for starters) and a potential market cap of circa £100million.
A share price of between 30/70 pence beckons then,with the prospect of much more to come.
All imo;yet I could not be more confident that WSI is an outfit with everything running in its favour.
12 months down the line the ZULU men will be picking up on WSI as it starts to address their criteria.Shame then(not)that they will need to pay possibly four fold for the privilege.
WSI is then a ZULU DAWN company.(As I might add is PUR)
Not long at 13.5 pence then and thats FOR SURE!!

As a new investor I am interested which is why I have been taking a look at WSI over the weekend because imo as an investor, not a trader, I can't know, or think I know, too much about a company in which I am invested.

So

It appears from a cursory comparison of Infor and Workplace Systems International that there is not any duplication of software. The comparison revealed that Infor's modus operandi is to buy software and modify it, if the software in question is perceived as being disruptive and WorkBrain could imo qualify as it employs mathematical rather than heuristic solutions to challenging schedules. Hence WorkBrain now being part of Infor.

Imo Infor is not likely to interfere with the status quo with WSI as Infor recognizes that the power of its products lies in its partner's involvement in the creation of the products. As if to prove this Infor has, over the last few days, been demonstrating WorkBrain at the National Retail Federation's January Conference, held in New York, along with a representative (possibly Barnaby Quinn ) from the Workplace Systems International the creator of WorkBrain which is all good news for WSI.

And me and other imo astute investors.

broomsticks;the man to appreciate at WSI is the CEO(fortunately)Barnaby Quinn.
Just the type of man the Americans like and a shrewd cookie to boot.After making his name with Sherwood,Quinn moved across to SSPH(though not as CEO)where he was instumental and successful in reorganising their insurance software division,focussing on SaaS type offerings and on building recurring revenues.After a similar time to that which he has been at WSI, revenues did indeed surge and SSP then succumbed to a buy out,rewarding patient holders with a swift 300% share price gain(see now defunct SSPH thread).It was Quinn's presence at WSI that persuaded me to build a significant stake,and whilst revenues are taking a while to build,it is significant that % recurring revenues are already moving ahead ,whilst the impending surge in actual revenues moves ever closer.
Still a buy(imo) at 14pence.

Although a partner to Infor;with WSI technologies powering Infor's WorkBrain Task Management solution;WorkPlace is also direct and successful competitor of Infor,particularly in N America.November has seen a big push by Infor to counteract WSI's recent U.S expansion,with its current advertising mirroring that of WSI's:-

Do workforce management headaches distract you from your most important goals? Now there's a solution.

"Preventing employees from clocking in early paid for the entire project."
You need tools that that help you:
* Spend less time on workforce administration.
* Lower your payroll expenses.
* Anticipate demand and coverage accurately.
* Track your employees' performance.
* Comply with labour laws and corporate directives.
* Automate all of your pay rules.
Simplify your everyday staffing tasks and focus on serving your customers better-Infor WFM Workbrain delivers.
Companies that use Infor WFM Workbrain solutions have increased their net profit margins by 15-40 basis points; reduced their labor costs by up to 6%; and cut the time it takes to complete administrative tasks by as much as 60%.
Infor WFM Workbrain is designed to manage all aspects of your workforce labour:
Planning - See the best workforce levels for your budget.
Scheduling - Ensure the correctly skilled and most appropriate employees are scheduled to cover your workload.
Time and Attendance - Improve productivity and ensure you're complying with contracts.
Absence - Reduce absenteeism by respecting and automatically enforcing absence policies.
Performance - Highlight performance, identify problems and monitor costs."

IMO it would make sense for Infor to absorb WSI.Could be that they are just waiting to ascertain the level of traction that WSI is gaining in N America before acquiring our company,its technology and their client list including Walmart.

Which ever way this plays out,we should see a strong share price
In fact the market is currently bidding ABOVE MID PRICE for stock.
This should indicate that an upwards movement is on its way.
