Bio
Chris O'Keeffe
I’ve worked closely with Richard for 1 yr at Northgate plc and in that time he has continually impressed whilst under strong pressure to deliver. He is a solid and very reliable member of the Northgate business support team and is never afraid of taking ownership of any problem. His knowledge of the product is impressive and together with his accounting skills uses this to great effect in implementing Dynamics AX. Richard will do whatever is necessary to get the job done from the most basic task to explaining to senior management changes in process or modifications to the software required to deliver the solution. He would be a strong addition to any team wishing to implement Dynamics AX.
