Testimonials
"I would have no hesitation in recommending George to others who need an expert in Project Management or Business Analysis. George undertook a number of project / business analysis tasks for us and, on each occasion, the work was excellent quality and carried out with the highest level of professionalism.
George impressed me with his ability to view complex and sometimes contentious situations objectively and with great insight."

"George worked as Project Manager for the Child Health Department, Community Services Bury during a period of implementation of a new hosted version of the Child Health 2000 system. The system was migrated from an iSoft hosted solution to a CSC hosted solution. George was quick to form strong working relationships at all levels and showed a particular strength in translating Project tasks into meaningful business as usual tasks.
He showed exceptional clarity of thought in defining outcomes and communicated expectations clearly and fully to all levels of staff. George prepared a comprehensive and concise post-implementation report with clear follow up actions, which will add to the Lessons Learned document, and help support future migrations. I would have no hesitation in recommending George as a Project Manager, or in employing him at some further stage."

“We employed George to undertake a specific piece of work regarding our future information reporting options. The work he undertook was completed on time and within budget.

His excellent interpersonal skills were also seen as an advantage throughout.”

"I have been particularly pleased with the degree of initiative shown by George. For me a key element of outsourcing this work was the need to minimise my personal involvement in the project. The work George carried out was not only first class but he also did not require constant detailed input from me as the client.
This means that he fully met and, in fact, exceeded my expectations. I would have no hesitation in coming to George first should suitable opportunities arise in the future."

"George´s expertise allowed him to take control of the process in an assured and professional manner. He produced the formal PRINCE 2 deliverables for the project, and at the same time provided pragmatic suggestions about how the work could interact with both small businesses and community groups.
George dealt with both these parties in his role, and laid an admirable foundation for his successor.
The Broadband programme benefited from his experience, ability to deliver and enthusiasm in getting the job done.
Hopefully I will have the opportunity to work with George again."

"George provided IT consultancy for Abbey National (Abbey) on a key strategic project. He was required to communicate and influence team members at all levels, from Senior IT Management to Application Developers.
George´s approach to the commission was very professional, confident and reassuring. He quickly created a reputation for delivery, and ensured complete buy-in of all involved.
In summary, George played a critical role in the team, which allowed Abbey to move forward in their IT Strategy regarding CBD.
As a result of his success in this area, George was then requested to provide project management consultancy and direction to a major business project.
Again his approach ensured a smooth and successful implementation of the delivery. George was highly respected by all who he encountered in Abbey, and was a real asset to our team."

"George was Project Manager when Brunner Mond implemented new financial systems from CODA in 1991/92, when he worked for Price Waterhouse Coopers, and did an excellent job. I had kept his phone number, and he was the logical choice when we wanted to replace our systems again in 2001."
