Capita gobbles up more public sector pie

Crapita strikes again. I've been avoiding working for them for the past 10 years, every business they buy they close and relocate the "service" elsewhere. Problem is you never know where they will strike next. I imagine for security reasons they need to keep onshore a lot of the government department jobs which is a good thing at least. There should be a limit to the amount of contracts (value or volume) one organisation can have across government, that would atleast promote competition between the players.

"Capita is currently paying more than 92% of valid invoices on the contract within 30 days (and the average is 28 days)."

within 30 days:

*of the invoice creation date, sent out with 30 days payment terms?

*of receiving an invoice, regardless of when the payment date is?

*after the due date of the invoice expiring?

*after receiving the first dunning letter from invoicer?

Language matters in there things..

As regards being 'Spawn of the Devil' I think Capita is on track to overtake Google.

I'm witnessing the 'changeover' from my Local Authority to Crapita -- it is a long and painful process and so far has 'advisors' with no bloody worthwhile advice.

Ah, Capita. Refused to pay our invoices even after their legal team told them they had to as they had no reason not to. Support was stopped, they still refused to pay. Great people to work for.

They eventually paid when the people they were providing the services for got legal on them as they weren't providing being provided their contracted services..

AC obviously..

B*stards

A company of penny pinching accountants. Minimal thought for clients, no thought for staff.

I would avoid anything to do with this organisation.

i'd hate to be a recruiter covering crapita. when ever they call me they are very reluctant to say its for crapita and when i tell them i'd never work for them they immediately start the spewl on how much turnover and how advantageous it is to work for such a large organisation.
