Jean-Paul Abbosh

Automotive aftersales consultant

Most workshops do not have a people problem or a tools problem. They have a process nobody has walked end to end in years. I walk it, measure it, and hand you back something you can run on Monday.

Evidence

The record

Consultants ask you to take their word for it. Here is thirty years of correspondence from the manufacturers and groups instead: dated, on letterhead, and open to read.

Documents are shown as filed. Nothing here is a testimonial written for a website.

What I am called in for

Aftersales audit

I walk the workshop, sit with the service advisors, and read the numbers against what I have just seen. The report says what is costing you money, in order, with what it costs.

Turnaround after acquisition

New owner, old habits, two systems and a team waiting to be told what happens next. I have done this with smart, Audi and Volkswagen, and reorganised Mercedes-Benz concessions.

Brand start-up

From an empty building to open doors: smart in Paris, Mercedes-Benz in Qatar. Recruitment, process, tooling, launch, and the first six months that decide whether it holds.

Coaching and training

Service advisors, workshop managers, general managers. On the floor where the work happens, and in the classroom, including academic teaching.

Method

How I work

Five stages, in order, every time. The last one is the one most consultants skip.

Vision

Your objectives, your constraints, and the data you already hold.

Study

Assessment, analysis, and what is actually feasible here.

Strategy

A plan you can afford and your team can carry out.

Implementation

On site. Advice, coaching, support while it beds in.

Achievement

Measured against the numbers we started with. I come back and check.
