What does Jack Duncan Consulting do?

JDC is a 4 year old firm offering consulting and education to the office machine industry. We offer educational classes geared toward service and service operations personnel that are based on Jack's 35 years of successful service management experience. One such offering is our Service Managers University which has had over 75 attendees from all over the United States as well as Canada and St Lucia. Attendees have ranged from new Service Managers to CFO's and Business Owners. In addition, JDC does on site consulting for users of the OMD software as well as Digital Gateway's e-automate product as well as web based training.

Our services and classes are aimed at increasing efficiency and productivity in order to increase profits at the bottom line in both service and supply areas. We have many projects used to "Tune up" the OMD software platform to provide better information and increase effectiveness of such areas as Service Technician Territories, Parts Purchasing and Car Stocks, Service Statistics and more.

This year, JDC has partnered with Digital Gateway in order to offer the SMU classes for it's users. This class has already been held twice at the Digital Gateway facility in Provo, Utah and the results have been outstanding. The August 4th class already has 20 attendees.

JDC can conduct an on-site audit of your service organization and assemble a plan customized for you to increase service efficiency as well as profits. Jack has an outstanding background working at a dealership in Dallas using the most commonly accepted business models and has met or exceeded the profit goals set forth before leaving to start JDC Consulting.

The Bottom Line: If you're not making over 50% Gross Profit in Service - we can Help!

The latest news at JDC! Is your First Call Effectiveness in need of improvement?

Before the end of the year, JDC will be taking on a new partner with nearly 30 years experience as a Professional Service Technician.

Plans are to offer specialized classes which can be held in our classroom or on-site at your location as well as provide the ability to do field audits and ride-alongs with your technicians to help improve their ability to fix the machine right on the first visit, therefore saving you time and money!

Our Mission

Our Mission is to bridge the gap between a Great Service Technician and a Successful Service Manager through both Education and a Series of Projects designed to Increase Bottom Line Profits. Jack has 35 years of proven techniques to get the most from your operating software in order to maximize efficiency & control cost. Service Managers University not only delves into using your current software more efficiently, but also the art of managing a mobile workforce while still attaining profitability goals. After all, when you are managing Field Service Technicians, "When you can see them, they're not doing what you pay them to do!"

After many years of navigating the minefield known as "The Model" and meeting or exceeding model targets while maintaining  operational budgets, Jack Duncan Consulting was formed to not only consult, but to teach practices that will allow service management to run more productive and profitable departments while providing pro-active services to customers insuring a high degree of customer satisfaction. The true value of a good consultant is to be able to bring value by teaching practices which bring success based on years of experience.

With the burden of profit placed squarely on the aftermarket (service & Supply), it is imperative that we give our managers the training necessary to succeed. We must make the transition from a world of "Break - Fix" to that of a successful Business Manager. We are here to provide the training and tools to do just that.
