I know Darcy de Mestral from various projcets where I was either a client or project manager. He is a top sparring partner, has excellent methodological skills and acts as a conscientious driver. It is a pleasure to work with him, not to mention that he is a great person.

I worked with Darcy de Mestral and Michèle Ritter on various projects. I appreciate the pragmatic and hands-on way in which projects are led to success. The independent way of working, the great experience in project management as well as the open, respectful and honest interaction are important prerequisites to implement projects together.

In our project of migrating all front-end systems and connecting them to a new core system, Darcy de Mestral and his people shone with very great commitment, technical expertise and professional demeanor. Commitment, leadership and transparent communication distinguish the team.
Fabio Buscemi, Owner Digital Contact Channels, KPT, Bern
Darcy de Mestral is a thoughful, mercurial and forward-thinking overall project manager with infectious tenacity. He sees potential trouble spots early and brings them to attention of all stages. As a client, you also benefit from the fact that he knows how to recruit excellent project staff. And what really impressed me personally: Overload and stress are no reason for a bad mood!
Marcel Tschanen, external Project Manager, KPT, Bern
I have seen Darcy de Mestral in action in various projects at Sunrise and Cablecom. What impresses me is not only his reliability and his ability to help shape things – and to disagree with the client in a friendly but firm manner at times – but also, and above all, that he is able to inspire internal teams as an external project manager or program manager and bring them along with him. I would entrust a company to him at any time.
Mariateresa Vacalli, CEO, Cler Bank
During Darcy de Mestral’s interim assignments for Acuente, his absolutely serious and professional commitment stood out. In addition to his technical and organizational skills, he impressed above all with his networked thinking and acting as well as hish high methodological competence. From my point of view, one can hand over the management of a project or program – even a large one – to him without hesitation.

During the development of FinanceScout24, the advento team supported us in a needs-oriented manner, both in the project management office and with specific content-related topics (e.g. implementation of a ticket system in the contact center). I particularly appreciated the flexibility of Darcy and his team as well as their identification with our project.
Jan Hinrichs, Managing Director FinanceScout24, Flamatt
I have worked with Darcy de Mestral on several large projects, each time leading a sub-project. Darcy is able to think his way into a company’s situation very quickly and also manages complex projects in a goal-oriented manner, even when tensions arise. In each case, he was greatly appreciated by all involved, not least because of his authentic cooperation at all levels.
