Knowledgeable – Dan gives you so much confidence that he can guide you to the best possible solution swiftly.

We serve major private house developers, main contractors, and social housing providers, with offices across the Central Belt of Scotland.
Dan expertly guided us through the initial stages, enabling our internal project team to gain an understanding of the system and carry out system setup and data imports. He then smoothly transitioned the project to one of the Simpro trainers for user training. His in-depth knowledge and clear communication ensured a seamless transition, setting a solid foundation for our team.
Dan was instrumental in aligning Simpro with our diverse operational requirements. He was professional, approachable, and responsive, making the implementation process straightforward and manageable.“

“I had the pleasure of managing Dan Bevan during our time at EA-RS, me as Chief Information Officer, and Dan as our Digital Solutions Manager.
Dan is an exceptional software implementation consultant and an even better problem solver.
If the building was on fire, Dan would calmly guide everyone out, fix the sprinkler system on the way, and still make it to the next meeting on time. He’s unflappable and always focused on finding solutions, no matter how chaotic things get.
Dan is also one of the most genuinely caring people I’ve worked with. He’s not just about getting the job done (which he does impeccably well), he truly cares about his colleagues and their well-being.
If you need someone who can handle complex projects with ease and keep a level head under pressure, Dan is your guy. He’s reliable, skilled, and a great person to have on your team.“

“Dan is the first person I turn to when I need a straightforward answer to a question about the system. He was also always there to take me and the team through workflow related questions that we needed to work out a way of handling in the software.
After go-live Dan assisted us in resolving the system issues and additional queries that would arise daily and weekly from individuals and teams. I would keep a tracker of the issues and through meeting regularly and providing additional training, we eventually reduced the number of issues down to virtually zero.
Dan’s patience, persistence and ability to explain things in simple terms sets him apart and was key to us getting the system to the place it is today. I would highly recommend Dan to other service businesses looking for software implementation support.”
