GRPMAX — A Proven Track Record

GRPMAX started in 1979 with its Founder providing specialized services to the manufacturing industry that lowered costs and automated procedures still being performed manually. The business was incorporated in 1989 as QNS Computer Services & Publishing and expanded to encompass computer training, books, and educational materials. The former company name and acronym, QNS (Quality in Service Corporation), exemplified the quest for quality.

The name GRPMAX, adopted in 1998 and standing for “Golden Rule Principles Maximum Achievable Excellence™,” integrates the company’s expanded mission statement into the company name. GRPMAX is the consulting practice of Phillip A. Covington.

 

CONSULTING

Phillip A. Covington, Chief Creative Officer and CEO, has provided computer-consulting services for over 15 years, usually as a secondary focus. Since the release of the Results First! Guaranteed program in 2001 GRPMAX is uniquely positioned to provide exclusive consulting services and technologies not available from any other company in the industry.

 

TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT AND LICENSING

Results First! Guaranteed draws heavily on Automated Task Replacement™ (ATR™) technology, the result of almost three decades of work in the field by CCO and CEO Phillip A. Covington, including over 15 years of providing innovative solutions and products to a large number of the Fortune 500, State and Federal Government, and major colleges and universities.

A new section of this site is planned in the future to showcase GRPMAX-developed technologies and initiatives.

 

COMPUTER BOOK PUBLISHING

Phillip A. Covington authored “Computers — The Plain English Guide,” the first intro-level computer book of its kind. The Plain English Guide reached all four corners of the globe within four months of release, and was the most popular book prior to the Dummies series. The 300-page book was published by QNS.

Long before eCommerce and Amazon.com QNS brought numerous innovations to the computer book-publishing field, including automated ordering, same-day shipping, and outrageously good customer service. QNS achieved a total return rate (including wholesalers and booksellers) of less than 2% in an industry that still sees 30% to 35% of all books returned to the publisher. The QNS focus on a quality product and exceptional customer service allowed QNS to achieve a virtually unparalleled track record of 100% of its customers being satisfied. Today “Plain English” is seen on numerous computer products, but it all started with The Plain English Guide! A new book series, Computer Success Guaranteed!, is forthcoming from GRPMAX.
