About Us.
We established Navigate Solutions to address a requirement in the Irish motor industry for independent specialists with local knowledge to coach and support retailers to maximise their Sales and Aftersales potential.
We can call upon over 50 years' experience in the nuances and challenges of the Irish motor industry. We successfully steered a premium dealer network to continued success as board directors of BMW Group Ireland.
NSI is unique in that we combine a very strong commercial ‘hands on’ background and experience working in the Irish automotive market. Our credibility comes from being two well established and highly regarded directors with three of the leading brands in Ireland, we have proven records in a very performance driven organisation and culture.
We have a wide range of contacts across all facets of the Irish motor industry which we can call upon for further support as required.
We were selected to develop and host several business performance improvement programmes hosted by the SIMI and the government national training agency Skillnet, including their prestigious Automotive Senior Manager Programme. These have been very well supported with participants from NSCs, Importers and franchise dealers.
