About Us Big Picture

Why DeCroux Corporation

In most situations, whether having existing backlog or new software projects:

  • Internal IT/Software Departments do not have staffing or appropriate talent to develop unique software projects
  • Internal IT/Software Departments often have significant and critical leadership turnover
  • IT/Software Projects often require twelve to twenty-four months to complete
  • To recruit, train and oversee talent fulfillment adds great risk to complete software projects, on time and on budget
  • A hybrid of Management, internal IT/Software engineers, DeCroux Management and DeCroux’s inventory of outside resources is a wise consideration

Big Picture

 

It Begins with a Big Picture Map that Management Can Embrace

The world of business management and goal setting is often expressed very differently from the World of IT. The Board Room, the office of the CEO, CFO, Sales, Marketing and Operations need to understand What is it? How does it work? How do we benefit from it? How much does it Cost? How long to completion?

DeCroux is well suited to provide the consulting services to interpret and integrate the common goals of each business segment and work within the IT Department to create a schematic that outlines the process from start to finish.

DeCroux applies the Snap -Agile software process to:

 

  • Stay on track
  • Achieve agreed upon milestones
  • Work with outside software support professionals

 

In most situations, internal IT/Software Departments do not have staffing or appropriate talent to develop unique software projects. These projects often require twelve to twenty-four months to complete.

To recruit, train and oversee the talent fulfillment would add great risk and time to complete these software projects. A hybrid of internal IT/Software developemnt, Decroux and outside resources can be a wise consideration.

Key Elements in the

Partnership

It is very important that David Lee and DeCroux ensure that Business Management Leadership work and manage together: a partnership between a Managerial Leader, IT Leader and DeCroux to see that:

 

      • The Big Picture Map is converted into a well-functioning Software Schematic
      • Milestones are established and are easily understood by Management and IT as well as the outside resources
      • Timely Status/Production Meetings
      • Throughout the process, the focus must remain on primary features, not on “all the features”
      • Adjustments and Modifications must be developed and agreed to
      • Deadlines followed
      • Scope Creep is minimized
      • No Surprises!
      • “IT/Development” remains in the real world!

 

Several Cardinal Rules

      • At the expense of original expectations, it must be understood that achieving the deadline is critical, even if the project completion reflects less than original, anticipated features
      • Less important features may need to be deleted (and added back later)
      • Minor bugs may need to be ignored (and repaired later)
      • Over time, the completed project will be modified and “made better”

Warranties

The Primary Warranties that occur from working with David Lee and DeCroux

  • The Big Picture is followed, and the Deadline is Met
  • Costs remain within 10% of Budget
  • David Lee and DeCroux recruit appropriate talent to work with the IT/Software Department(s)
  • David Lee and the IT/Software Director manage the software project and counsel with management
  • Project revisions are appropriately negotiated to ensure that Scope Creep is minimized, and the Deadline is met
  • Overtime, improvements are made

Testimonials

Jim Mandel
CEO, OrangeHook Holdings
(Minneapolis)

I have relied on both IT and software insights provided by David Lee (and DeCroux) most of my professional career, spanning over twenty-five years.  I personally recruited David out of college, as a software programmer, then manager of software development/IT; and, finally, as a member of the executive staff;  all in an extremely short period.  David has since advanced his career, becoming the Chief Executive of several companies, some I have invested in and has led both private and public technology companies in those roles.

Throughout my personal career, I have frequently relied on David Lee to consult and coordinate various IT and software development efforts. His communicative style works well with my staff as well as our outside resources.  I often simply share a complex problem with David and then trust that he will advise me as necessary, most often giving David the latitude to direct my staff and outside resources to achieve the desire results.

Tanner Selinger
Controller, Chippenhook
(Dallas-Fort Worth)

Whenever we need a software solution for any of our financial management processes, especially in the accounting arena, I trust David Lee and DeCroux to assemble resources and develop a proprietary software solution for my company.   I have found that David understands business management and business insight, primarily from his hands-on experience gained over the years from his programming and software development background.  I might add, David understands the egos of developers, programmers, business managers and is uniquely able to develop a consensus within the various groups to resolve conflicts and complete cost-effective and timely software projects.

I’ve done business with David Lee for over 10 years in a variety of capacities, including highly technical projects as well as projects that relied heavily on his executive management. David is a talented technologist, and I’ve always enjoyed the projects we have collaborated on together. David brings innovative technology solutions to the plate and has the management and communications skills necessary to successfully bring those solutions to fruition. Additionally, he’s always an enjoyable addition to any project as he can relate and draw the best out of all levels of the team. His extensive international experience has also made him successful managing business across diverse cultures. I would highly recommend David for any project.
