Process and project management

Gate-16 is a consulting company specialised in Audit, Process and Project Management. Our consultants and auditors perform activities of evaluation, re-engineering and reorganisation of processes by exclusively using “state-of-the art” methods and techniques.

Our client target

To take the most of consulting is not the easiest thing: a manager who launches major projects often has to report on the return of these investments. In other words, he is often put in a risky situation. It is well-known that well-documented and even improved processes do not always bring the expected added-value. In many highly specialised enterprises, ivory tower behaviours are surprisingly balanced by the know-how of its employees or by "business as usual" behaviours.

From our long-standing experience, we get convinced that optimised processes bring the most important returns on investment for enterprises which implement very recurrent (repetitive?) processes and which involve big numbers of employees, clients, transactions and assets, to name a few. The more complex the processes are, the bigger the profit making of the project could be. That is the reason why Gate-16 is specialised in services to network operators and in the following main areas:

- energy;
- telecommunications;
- transports;
- banking and insurance.

Do not hesitate to get in touch with us at the very beginning of your projects. We will help you to define the improvement opportunities as well as the pitfalls to be avoided.

Values

Our company is based on the constant and strict respect of four fundamental basic values:

Openess: this first principle is twofold. On one hand, it refers to the listening capacity and empathy which are of the utmost importance for a good understanding of our clients’ needs. On the other hand, it refers to a strong sense of honesty and one could even say a strong sense of integrity which obliges us to identify and communicate, at a very early stage, to our client the risks and opportunities for each project, and which refrains us from leading our clients into hazardous pathways even though they are profitable in the short term.

Strictiness: the meaning of the word "to manage" is "to eliminate risks". Every decision or orientation suggested by our consultants must be based on facts and reliable figures. Chance and coincidence are forbidden words in our approach. The same goes for lack of precision and subjective feelings.

Professionnalism: in order to establish facts and figures and then to propose solutions and priorities, our consultants are well-experienced in the best methods and referentials available on the market. When our consultants do business management projects, they are always able to speak foreign languages. They always have university background, are always well-trained and coached. None of our projects takes place without the involvement of an « engagement manager" who is responsible for checking and making our commitments come true.

Creativity: last but not least, without creativity, our working days would be a long series of boring days. Our strength is a daily strong capacity to create working climates, approaches, solutions, management principles which could be transferred from one sector to others. And since we always involve your staff in our creative exercises (“design”) related to your future working modalities, the D-Day when the change arrives, is a day everybody looks forward and not a dreadful deadline!
