Celerity Consulting - Client Testimonials

Jacque Meyers VP of Program Management, Xiotech

"We brought Celerity in to help improve the predictability of our
software feature releases and it has done just that. The techniques they
teach for establishing a committed and motivated cross-functional team
simply work and our ability to identify risk and mitigate it early in
the program has increased substantially."

Jeffrey Feldman, PhD, CEO, Everest Broadband Networks

"The training and, most importantly, the coaching provided a heightened sense of accountability and integrity across the team. It is clear to me that the Celerity approach is distinct from any other consultative approaches I have encountered, primarily because it works."

David Pierpaoli, Program Manager, Lucent Technologies

"With the help of the Celerity Team, we were able to create a focused, accountable team that executed brilliantly. For the first time, we had a team, from Product Management / Sales to development to deployment, all in the same room at the same time. By identifying risks early on, we were able to mitigate them quickly thus avoiding the usual crisis mode. The customer was so satisfied that he actually said 'Thank You'."

Michael Hodges, Former Interim-CEO, Bandwidth9

"I have brought Celerity into several aggressive technology companies in the optical networking industry. The combination of simple and effective tools and project coaching has transformed talented engineering organizations into teams that have executed tough projects with razor precision. Celerity came in at the beginning of a couple extremely urgent and complex projects and their coaching enabled big successes."

R. Martin Chavez, CEO, Kiodex, Inc.

"We're a talented, experienced software group at Kiodex. We thought we'd seen it all. Celerity makes our projects go faster, certainly; but now the Celerity technology has transformed every aspect of our business. What's more, we're confidently funding our company and executing our business plan in the most difficult capital markets in fifteen years. Celerity just works."

Ed Glassmeyer, General Partner Oak Investment Partners

"Celerity adds tremendous value to their Oak portfolio clients. In essence, they work miracles by getting products defined, developed and deployed in record time. They are certainly one of Oak's 'secret weapons'."

Grant Beckmann, General Manager Publishing Application Group NextPage, Inc.

"Celerity Consulting's powerful mix of classroom training and "on the court" coaching ensures that we apply what we learn in training to our projects the very next day. We have not missed a delivery date on any committed project since we engaged with Celerity."

Miller Newton, CEO, Lavastorm Technologies, Inc.

"I actually believe if it were not for the work (Celerity) did with us we would still not have a launched product (6 months later). It has permanently changed the way we plan, design, and build our software."

Tim Jenks, President & CEO, NeoPhotonics

"Together with my management team, we stand for our conviction that Celerity Consulting has been instrumental in moving NeoPhotonics from a research company to a product development and manufacturing enterprise. As a result of the tools that Celerity has introduced, we have seen a marked increase in both productivity and general morale as project teams measure their accomplishments and reduce their risk."

John Loyak, CFO, Public Service Company of New Mexico

"The Celerity process has revolutionized how we tackle IT projects, and has turned an organizational weakness into a core competency. Celerity gave us a way to communicate project risks, commitments and roles with a clarity and speed that was missing in our past IT projects. This process breakthrough has allowed PNM to identify and mitigate project roadblocks much earlier in the game, creating a velocity engine for our IT projects."
