As a newcomer to software development projects I consider myself very lucky to have worked under Marc - He was able to unfold my potentials as an algorithmic software developer and take leadership of the software development project. Marc is excellent at providing appreciative critique and motivating you to do better. Marc is a focused project manager dedicated to solving the task at hand regarding all stakeholders in a project.

I know Marc as an expert in both Business Intelligence, Optimization and Yield Management. Through our work I have seen how he is able to combine various data sources, models and methods to develop operational Yield Management tools. More so I have had the pleasure to see how he can bring his strong analytical skills into play and solving indeed very complex problems. I have found Marc to be a very good collaboration partner able to bridge the gap between University and Private Industry and have come to trust and rely on his expertise

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.

I worked with Marc for a year and a half on a project at Novozymes, further developing a large (multi-TB), cutting-edge system supporting life science research. Marc is able to work in a variety of programming languages and development environments, is very driven to produce high quality software, and he thinks a great deal about how to do things well. He delivers high quality work in a timely manner. Marc is not only a good team player but also very good at ensuring that all stakeholders are appropriately included in the process. I would highly recommend him.

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!

As project manager on the "Yield Management in Liner Shipping" running for 2½ years, I have had the pleasure of having Marc from Ange on our project team. He turned out to be one of the persons critical for the successes we have achieved.

Not only has he added value with his lead expertise in project management of software development, business use of mathematics and optimization methods as well as various aspects of liner shipping, but he has also demonstrated an ongoing focus on customer needs for his project, ability to direct team and own work efforts towards what is realistic and feasible to achieve with time and resources available for the project, and he has shown much passion for delivering quality work results to the benefit of the project and his team members.

I consider him a quality person, easy to communicate with, strong personal values and integrity, and a team oriented approach to his work, which I am confident that many other project teams will benefit from in the future

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!

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.

I have observed and worked closely with Marc Cromme for 2 years on a nearly decade-old, complex and evolving IT system for ingesting, managing and analyzing bioinformatical data in the terabyte range used in a global, commercial R&D setting. Marc has provided invaluable, worry-free and hands-off ‘back end’ support and maintenance, working primarily on closing user issues and developer tickets, and has also developed new features and functionality in the system. In brief, I find Marc an effective problem solver, and a valuable member of my team. A longer summary would include the phrases: professional, well-balanced, systematic, easy to get along with, direct and to the point, diligent, and willing to take the initiative in new domains.

Marc has been working for over 2 years, as a core software developer, on a very complex in-house build software application, where strong needs for biological domain knowledge is absolutely required. Marc has approached the tasks with the (necessary) go-do attitude and an open mindset with no fear of asking simple questions. The strong drive and structure in Marc work habits delivers progress on complex tasks with a strong degree of transparency for his surroundings. From both a personal and professional perspective, it has been a pleasure to work with Marc.
