I met Marc Cromme as Project Manager for Ange Optimization ApS
in 2008, and worked since on the development and implementation of
a decision support software tool for Maersk Line with him.
I can commend Marc and his team in terms of their commitment to
working, very much as a proactive partner to Maersk Line IT's
internal project team, to get the project delivered on time and
budget, and meeting all the agreed functional requirements.
Especially appreciated from my viewpoint is Marc's ability and
willingness to suggest and discuss alternative solutions, and his
attention to detail both in testing and supporting the other teams
involved in the project.

Top qualities: Expert, On Time, High Integrity
I have had the pleasure of working with Marc on an optimization IT
system for Maersk Line for the past 2.5 years. Marc has done a great job as a
project manager on IT system development, also taking parts in requirements
analysis and specification. I was responsible for buying the delivery and integrating
it into Maersk Line's business. Marc and his team consistently delivered on time and
on budget, some times even early and under budget! I can recommend Marc's technical IT
skills, project management skills, professionalism, and integrity to any future client,
colleague, and employer.

Marc and I worked together in a large EU-project - ALVIS. He is very good to have as a
partner in such a project - always caring about the success of the project, always happy to
discuss almost anything and at the same time being a good companion whether it comes to drinking
beer or deciding about intricate details in a large and complex system architecture. A number of
things stand out when considering Marc's performance:
- He is always willing to share his knowledge and expertise.
- He is always eager to discuss different approaches to solving the problem at hand.
- He is very good at keeping a meeting focused in to solve current issues.
- He has an extensive expertise in areas such as Information Retrieval, database design and
implementation, and network protocols specially within the sector of library applications.
When it comes to project work he has an excellent view of what is important and when it is
important, thus always moving the project forward toward it's goals. Thus I can wholeheartedly
recommend Marc and I sincerely hope that we will join forces in other projects in the future!

During five years, I have worked with Marc at Index Data. I know Marc as a bright and intelligent
person who manages both to keep himself updated with cutting edge information technologies and to
write solid, stable software. I as a colleague and the company as whole have benefit from Marc's ideas
and visions. Both regarding business models, management and technical paths to follow. Marc is always
willing to take part in discussions and is able to contribute with interesting new angles to the topic.
I will miss working with Marc!

Top qualities: Expert, High Integrity, Creative
I've worked with Marc on several projects within the library sector and would highly recommend
Marc's competences to other people. Marc is a very competent project partner with a serious approach
to our needs in the specific case. He is experienced in both project planning, programming and keeping
deadlines. Furthermore Marc is very creative and capable of finding the "perfect solution". I've also
worked with Marc in several support situations and I have only positive experiences in his capabilities
in both bug tracking and problem solving.
