They are options by the way not a free gift!!!!!!

[a2584728] 12/6/2015 08:13

Well if they exercise them at this price there is no gain, therefore if they work hard and get the price up to £1 they make 75p on each, if they don't they are worthless??.?.?

A2584728 - I must be missing something here since as far as I can see the Directors are getting their shares at the CURRENT price so in what way does that act as an incentive ?

[troutisout] 12/6/2015 07:56

Feel sorry for Tim though why are his the only ones at 36p, a little unfair...

[tomboyb] 12/6/2015 07:49

Well lets hope its a bit like Amazon -

The Amazon story on the BBC- Great documentary on the goliath -

Now its time to deliver results - I've always believed in incentivising staff. In particular good to see Jonny there. Who knows? One day it may make the staff some real money -

[a2584728] 12/6/2015 07:43

I like share options and at the vest price of these they need to get some growth in the share price to make them worthwhile, at £1 these shares are actually incentivising the executive.

[theunluckyone] 12/6/2015 07:37

Oh dear it appears we have a Director reading this board - shame they don't put as much effort into turning this Company into a success rather than feathering their own nests !!!!

[theunluckyone] 12/6/2015 07:11

How I yearn for the days when Director's options were set at a premium to the prevailing share price so they actually had to achieve something to qualify for the shares whereas now they are purely a "gimme" and just an addition to their remuneration package.

I understand your frustration with the CS after all the Daily Mail have pilloried it and its employees for years. Up to a point they maybe right BUT I repeat it is the politicians who have their hands on the tiller!

If a senior CS manager decided to go native and appoint CBUY for procurement he would be moved on PDQ. The political apple cart cannot be upset.

nashwan123, one supposes that there are 'friends' who's profits need to be protected?

[nashwan123] 11/6/2015 11:59

beez et al

I worked in govt IT and often railed against excessive, nay scandalous expenditure, of IT projects and HW/SW spending. It is NOT civil servants wasting the money they are merely doing the bidding of their political masters.
You would expect the Tories (party of business) to be more frugal with spending. The truth is that they have financial sponsors to get into power and the payback is through lucrative contracts. Simple but sadly true.

CBUY demonstrated for free, via the national audit office, it could make huge savings in a cash strapped economy. Why did government not follow this up?

Secondly Breeze-e Launch -

"the way people go to Amazon...theyll come to breeze-e for anything to do with adult social care" powered by cloudBuy

hxxp://diginomica.com/2015/06/08/to-market-to-e-market-for-social-care/

The aim is to undertake a “big bang” promotional launch of breeze-e by early autumn this year for the citizens of Northamptonshire, but to start expanding beyond the country’s geographical borders very quickly after that – to which end, the organisation is already in “pre-contractual negotiations with others”, says Paul Blantern, the Council’s chief executive. He continues:

The dream is that, in the same way people go to Amazon to buy books and DVDs, they’ll come to breeze-e for anything to do with adult social care and support services.

Good Morning -

cloudBuy has quite a bit on its plate at the moment so good too see a new director appointment -

On another note I see that there is mention of the NHS - Lord Carters review has just been completed today - It also outlines the need for a "A single national electronic catalogue for products used in the delivery of healthcare...."

[a2584728] 11/6/2015 09:26

The NHS in England could save £5bn a year with improved staff organisation and a better approach to purchasing everyday items, a review will say.Lord Carter came to the conclusion after spending a year working with 22 hospitals on behalf of the government.He found a wide variation in spending on items, from aprons to latex gloves. He also identified huge inefficiencies in the way staff were managed, with one hospital losing £10,000 a month through workers claiming too much leave.The report, which will be published in full later, will also say hospitals need to make better use of staff through flexible working and better rostering.Meanwhile, better use of medicines could also have a substantial impact, the efficiency review will say.Pricey glovesLord Carter found one hospital had managed to save £40,000 a year by using non-soluble versions of a tablet for liver failure that cost 2p instead of the soluble versions at £1.50.Some hospitals could also save hundreds of thousands of pounds by reviewing their spending on basic items, he will say. Latex gloves costing £5.44 a box in one hospital were bought for £2.39 in another. Aprons cost one hospital £2.51 each, but another paid £4.20.Lord Carter also found that hip operations were costing some parts of the NHS more than double the amount they should. And the hips used did not last as long as less expensive versions, meaning patients needed more replacements and follow-up care.That difference costs the NHS up to £17m extra every year. Lord Carter said the gains could be "significant". "We found some extremely good hospitals, some very efficient hospitals, but there are a number of hospitals that are not as good as they need to be," he said.'Long-standing issue'Following publication of this report, Lord Carter will publish a template for an efficient "model hospital" during the summer followed by a report by September in which he and the Department of Health will set out what each hospital is expected to save by putting in place the report's recommendations.Nuffield Trust chief executive Nigel Edwards said: "Lord Carter is right that there is waste within the health service and that enormous savings could be made through standardisation. "But this has been a long-standing issue in the NHS. "Spending public money better has been the holy grail of public-sector spending reductions over the past 20 years. "Diagnosing the problem is the easy bit. "Getting solutions to stick is much, much harder."

The NHS debate is endless, top 3 tiers of management needs a complete overhaul, buying is where most of the funds are wasted and where lots and lots of suppliers make vast sums of money with no guilt whatsoever.New procurement director to pull everyone into line, central buying distributing throughout the NHS as and when needed, like their own pick and pack service.CBUY could arrange all of that for them with the assistance of a logistics company.

[ramas] 11/6/2015 09:09

I like your thinking beez but NHS needs real strategic procurement , and although Tesco may talk strategic procurement the evidence speaks for itself aka classic Dutch auction Victorian mentality short termism which nearly and might still destroy the company

[a2584728] 11/6/2015 07:09

He was clearly impressed by the Duncan's story and the CBUY potential, comes from a good background.

[beeezzz] 10/6/2015 22:28

Iefrene.....Sadly civil Servants live in world of there own....and take very little notice of whats going on in the real world, that's why they are the most inefficient organization going.

If I was in charge of the NHS the first thing on my agenda would be to have one central buying department for the whole NHS and staffed with ex-tesco buyers who could put huge pressure on supplies to provide the best price for everything. Then have dedicated buying site for NHS departments to order free no mark up. I know its just a dream nothing is that simple. When you're spending £2 billion a week there must be savings.

JonC, every public body spending the publics money should be made to use something like Cbuy's system to demonstrate best value for money and a clear audit of expenditure. Head honcho's to get sacked if money is shown to be wasted and lost money clawed back from pensions and salaries. That would get rid of the dross and sticky finger merchants.

[jonc] 07/6/2015 07:56

Here we go again.



Every CBUY shareholder ought to bombard their MP with details of CBUYs spend analysis reports on NHS spending.
