  • Ad Ultima Group

    • Ad Ultima Group, Kortrijk Belgium, France, Netherlands; http://www.adultimagroup.com/en is a big
      software consultancy firm with headquarters in Belgium, operating mostly in Belgium, The Netherlands and France.
      Founded in 2000, it now employs over 200 people, with an annual turnover of over 22 million EUR. A senior
      manager and 8 project managers and team leads have been our end-users 1-9. The execution of tactical management
      relies on personal inputs from the manager as well as inputs from organizational factors. On the side of the personal
      inputs that influence the tactical management performance, very important are the personal qualifications, skills and
      competences obtained through education, experience (tenure, area) and training. The ADR has been carried out with
      experienced project managers. Their experience ranked from 5 to over 10 years in this domain with over 200
      international customers and integrated systems for the company as a whole. The educational backgrounds of the
      managers involved varied from engineering, human resources, economics to political sciences and IT. The specific
      skills and competences have been acquired throughout their professional experience in various companies, such as:
      software project management in terms of methodology (SureStep, Agile) and products (Microsoft Dynamics,
      Microsoft CRM, Microsoft Nav). The management of the company had invested vastly in providing various
      organizational support as well as training and soft-skills development for its project managers. Each of the middle
      managers involved in the research has been leading 10+ employees (consultants, developers, domain specialists, …).
      The company had a complicated organizational structure – matrix but in the background of the projects, there was
      invisible functional structure too. Consequently, the project managers had to steer projects across various
      departments, interfering with other projects, having continuous challenges to intermediate and negotiate with peers,
      clients, management, employees in order to run the projects. Over-time, over-budget and/or with changed functionalities were frequently observed in all the projects.


  • Suelto GCV

    • Suelto GCV, Halle, Belgium was founded in 2014. Through the course of our ADR research, in
      month 1, one specific manager we collaborated with, was employed in Company A, performing duties and activities on specific projects managing his own team. However, in month 3, this professional left that company and started his own business, in the same domain – software and management consultancy. The owner-manager of the company B is thus our end-user 1 as he was referred to in Context 1. This SME owner is an experienced project manager in software consultancy and implementations, with proficiency practiced over 11 years in this domain with over 100 international customers and integrated systems. The educational background of the manager is in Human Resource Management and the specific capabilities and knowledge are gained in the software project management domain in terms of methodology (SureStep, Prince 2, SCRUM, Six Sigma, Agile) and products (Microsoft Dynamics, Microsoft CRM, Microsoft Nav). The consultancy has collaborated with several big clients 2014-present and has several successful implementations of the design artifact in new contexts for new projects – disseminating and verifying its applicability.
