Jozef Antony Consulting

✔️ I’ve built software development teams from scratch for 10+ companies worldwide
✔️ 3 of my clients’ companies were later acquired by 𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗮, 𝗠𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼𝘀𝗼𝗳𝘁, and 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗼𝘁𝗮𝘀𝗸.
✔️ 25+ years of experience in the software development space

Here is a sample breakdown of two projects we have handled:

1:

The client is in the life science industry. We built a software development team from scratch. The software solution helped the company to run and document clinical trials. We acted as an outsourcing partner.

The company was later acquired by Medidata. And later, Medidata was acquired by Dassault Systeme. The team continued to operate and grow to 15-17 developers, testers, DevOps engineers. This partnership lasted for 6 years.

2:

Built a development outsourced team to work on one of the first file-sharing and collaboration platforms in 2005 (like Dropbox or Google Drive). The solution was focused on enterprise customers. They used it for file sharing and backup. It was scaled to 170.000 paying customers. The company was later sold to Autotask and later to Datto.

As an outsourcing partner, we scaled the team to 15-20 developers and testers. Responsible for the application development, testing, hiring developers, and managing day-to-day operations of the development team. We constantly communicate with partners in Denmark and the US. This partnership is still ongoing since its inception in 2005.

👉 4 Main Reasons Why Companies Can’t Build Market-Leading Products:

(𝗜) 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁-𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗲𝗱: Discovering that you cannot deliver fast enough. Communication friction, misunderstandings, and challenges between engineering, product, and business slow everything down.

(𝗜𝗜) 𝗜𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗦𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗲: Encountering invisible barriers that hinder your business growth, whether they are technological limitations, inefficient processes, or gaps in team expertise.

(𝗜𝗜𝗜) 𝗢𝗯𝘀𝗼𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗲 𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝘆: Revamping your technology or product features to stay relevant may require significant resources and time. Focusing on business value helps you navigate these issues easier and faster.

(𝗜𝗩) 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁 𝗙𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝗿 𝗗𝗼𝘄𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲: The alarming possibility that product failures impact not just your customers' operations but also your hard-earned reputation.

Addressing these challenges requires more than just hard work and determination. 

As a Fractional CTO and Product Growth Partner - I help companies to:

✅ Focus on company objectives and align your teams with your big goals - building the wrong thing fast doesn’t bring any value. Focusing on business value constantly is the priority.

✅ Accelerate delivery without compromising quality - the common myth is that this cannot be accomplished; the opposite is true.

✅ Honest communication, even if (especially if) the news is not good. The dynamic business environment needs constant adjustment. Keeping the communication flow open ensures the project focuses on the business value.

✅ Establish a practical timeline through effective project management - mismanagement is a primary cause of software project failures. Keeping all parties in sync, especially key stakeholders, is crucial.
