Headquartered in Cupertino, California, Gerstco, Inc, provides both Affirmative Action Program (AAP) consulting, outsourcing services, and software products.
Gerst AAP, Inc. was founded in 1982 to provide consulting services to federal contractor companies in Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) and Affirmative Action Program (AAP)planning. As consultants
to management and human resources, our focus has always been to establish technically compliant, fully operational Affirmative Action Plans and Programs, as required by the federal government.
Then, as now, our core values of quality service, timeliness, continuous improvement and expert regulatory knowledge, brought understanding and awareness to managers and human resources professionals regarding current and emerging trends in Equal Employment Opportunity and Affirmative Action Programs.
Gerst Software was founded in 1993 to develop, market, and sell EEO AAP solutions to federal contractors who must prepare and implement AAPs for their U.S. sites.
Gerst AAP, Inc and Gerst Software, Inc. are now merged into one business: Gerstco, Inc. The company offers expert consulting services and software products that are fitted to the individual needs of contractors.
