LONDON - Friday, September 26th 2014 [ME NewsWire]
(BUSINESS
WIRE) -- Ronald Duncan, Chairman and CIO at cloudBuy plc, the world’s
leading transactional cloud platform, has delivered a presentation at
the GCC Municipalities and Smart Cities Conference in Dubai on how
cloudBuy enables smart cities through improved purchasing, government to
citizen engagement and economic development.
This presentation
forms part of a series of cloudBuy ‘Peak Performance’ events taking
place across the Middle East and Asia Pacific regions in partnership
with the UKTI. The focus for the events is how business can save money
and drive growth and efficiencies in procurement by using cloud
technologies. The events extol the success of the UK Government G-cloud
program, which cloudBuy has used to deliver £10 million of saving to
government organisations.
A recent Gartner analysis stated that a
full source- to- pay solution would take five years to roll out through
an organisation. The cloudBuy UKTI ‘Peak Performance’ initiative
provides an in-depth analysis of sales, costs, and organisational
efficiency, and aims to help participating organisations speed up this
process by a factor of ten so that the full source- to- pay solution,
with analysis and implementation, can be delivered in five months.
Duncan references successful ecommerce case studies from the NHS in the
UK and Australia State Government.
The ‘Peak Performance’ events will be attended by C-level Executives and take place as follows:
Mumbai 30 September
Singapore 2 October
Sydney 13 October
Hong Kong 16 October
Dubai 20 October
Duncan will also deliver a key note address to the Procurement and Supply Australasia Premier Confex in Melbourne on 9 October.
Duncan
commented: “Peak performance in sport is all about analysing each
performance to deliver improvements faster than your competitors. Team
Sky demonstrated again how continuous incremental improvements delivers
results with Sir Bradley Wiggins victory in the World Time Trial
Championships. In the same way, rapid and accurate benchmarking is
required to help businesses analyse performance to achieve significant
improvements in sales and operational efficiencies.
“cloudBuy has
analysed over $500 billion from world class organisations and is able
to provide feedback with identified savings for most organisations in
less than 48 hours, thereby enabling rapid improvement.”
