Background

About Derrick Bishop

I am an energetic 185 cm [6 ft 1"], athletic, intelligent, articulate, well travelled entrepreneur. My team played international rugby union and I still play competitively when time permits. I lived in Hawaii, DC, NZ, the Caribbean and Australia.I have farm boy integrity and values but can still rule a blue chip corporate Boardroom. I am an international business owner and also mentor post-grads at one of the top business universities to give back to the next generation.HR consultants describe me as a "polymath" which is an individual whose knowledge spans a substantial number of subjects, known to draw on complex bodies of knowledge to solve specific problems. I see patterns in numbers and operational issues magnitudes earlier than others. I used that 'gift' to design the methodology to optimise the size of motor vehicle fleets based on GPS data-driven evidence. The methodology is recognised as Industry Best Practice and changed fleet consulting in the US$400 billion fleet industry.I hold a 4-year Management degree with a triple major in Advanced Corporate Finance, Market and Operations Management. I project manage large IT projects for companies like Westpac. My first ever electronics project was a fully operational Global Positioning System that I mass produced. I designed the PCBs, part selection, and wrote the micro-controller firmware. My GPS and AI systems formed the core of Bishop Fleet Optimization [BFO] that I took international in 2010. My Data Analytics are usually 15 years ahead of the market. I captained rugby teams for years so have a powerful EQ/IQ mix:)BFO is now one of the most experienced and internationally trusted fleet consulting firms in it's specialist niche. The company has optimised the size of more Government fleets with its best practice methodology than most other consulting firms. Treasuries around the world rely on our expertise to make the right fleet decisions. The US Government Accountability Office that reports to Congress relies on my advice.My proven technology and processes win awards and lead the industry. No GPS purchase is required. BFO collects GPS utilisation data for you or we can transform your existing data.
