What Our Clients Say About Us
We strive to delight our customers and pride ourselves on a job well done. It is always a pleasure to hear from Clients happy with the services we provide:
Gapro has the ability to very quickly provide insight into enhancing business performance. Working with my senior management team they were able to develop coherent plans and motivate them and their teams to deliver tangible business transformation impacting the bottom line performance. They work at pace and have a naturally engaging, inclusive and facilitative style that enables people at all levels in the organisation to have open, honest and sometimes difficult yet constructive conversations to get to the real core of the issues that need to be addressed. Gapro brings real energy and enthusiasm that, coupled with a structured approach, allows teams to develop and own the vision and plans for future growth
Sam White, Managing Director - Babcock International Group plc.
Gapro helped us to turn around and transform Rolls-Royce Power Systems' Bergen Engines Medium Speed Power and Propulsion business. Working with me, my senior leadership team and teams throughout the organisation Gapro developed, launched and delivered transformation of our Engineering, Supply Chain and Logistics and power plant Delivery Programme capabilities. They helped us reorganise, identify and develop talent and capabilities, develop and deliver new products and markets and delivered change making a real and lasting difference to business performance
Jeff Elliott, Managing Director - Bergen Engines Group, Rolls-Royce Power Systems
Gapro supported us recently as we re-engineered our new product introduction processes to allow us to control better the link through from design, development, engineering and into production. We are a Vietnam based premium furniture manufacturer with a mix of expat & local management. Gapro were able to provide clarity on the process and more importantly bring the teams together, understanding the 'pain points' but also understanding the people side of things in a very quick time. Their ability to put in place a fit for purpose process which has had an instant impact and improvement in our service to customers and also taken out much of the internal noise is a big testament to Gapro - it was also achieved by working remotely as well as onsite at our facilities in Vietnam
Tom Champion, Group Chief Finance Officer - Rochdale Spears Group
Gapro provided a key resource to Rolls-Royce Marine's Steering Gear Recovery Programme. This was a key product ratification programme of a highly engineered and mission critical product. I was a member of the steering committee with responsibility for programme oversight and Gapro was a key member of the working group. We worked together over a period of time to ensure ongoing fleet safety whilst finding root cause, a fix and supported fleet wide roll out effectively together. Gapro worked with the highest level of integrity and professionalism in what was a very sensitive and complex multi-year / multi-geography customer facing ratification programme. They are very approachable and worked well within our integrated global team
Declan Guerin, Chief Finance Officer/Group Chief Restructuring Officer - Rolls-Royce Group plc.
Worked with Gapro for over two years It was a pleasure working with Gapro . They helped tremendously with transforming the business, putting in place simplified and lean system and processes. Talk followed by putting words into actions is how I would describe it in a nutshell . The result worked through to the bottom line. I have no issue in recommending Gapro to others
Peter Headland, Global Business Development & Sales Director - Rolls-Royce Power Systems
A Gapro Consultant joined my team in Network Engineering with the brief of assisting the Senior Management Team in splitting the Rail and Power businesses into two stand alone entities and assist with the transformation of the Rail business. This was a very difficult assignment, given the complexities of the businesses and the short time scale. He has stuck to his task and has driven change and cost savings through despite all the excuses and protestations. I would recommend Gapro for any Change Management position and they are an asset to any Senior Management Team
Pieter Esbach, Managing Director - Babcock International Group plc.
In a period of just a few weeks, Gapro were able to understand our global Field Service business and processes, facilitate business development planning sessions and assemble a coherent strategy with a supporting detailed programme plan to deliver the strategy. Gapro works at pace and has very high levels of enthusiasm and a passion for improvement and delivery. They were a pleasure to work with and I hope to work with Gapro again at some point in the future
Danny O'Connor, Vice President - Rolls-Royce Group plc.
