"..The David Consulting Group has been instrumental in supporting the development of our Function Point based measurement program. Their consulting expertise and guidance has provided us with the support necessary to sustain a long term measurement program. We are now in a position to collect, analyze and report on data that helps our management to improve the governance of our project portfolio." - Program Manager, BMO Financial Group (in business over 180 years)

“…DCG had the right blend of characteristics to be our CMMI partner and clearly had domain expertise around CMMI. It was evident they could work with us at the speed we wanted to. Their approach was non-academic and clearly resulted in many improvements in quality around our code. DCG became and extension of our organization instead of a vendor. We were very proud of the fact that our company went from no CMMI compliance to CMMI compliance in 15 months.” - Frank Sanchez, President of Enterprise Solutions, Fidelity National Information Services

“Function point (productivity) analysis work: Just as a point of feedback, Tom, the DCG consulting interviewer has done a very professional job with these sessions. I have so far participated in two and both have been very well led. Tom was able to characterize pretty quickly what went on in the projects. He has a very non-threatening style, and asks very good questions. He finished when he learned what he needed to know so we could get on with it. ” – Mike, Worldwide Multimedia Company

“
It had a powerful effect on my Transition Enabling Team at the SEI.

DCG Training works on the Web and on site...

“There is clearly a lot to learn about FPA and it's obvious it takes practice to become skilled. I know I will be able to apply what I have learned immediately to our ongoing work at our company. I have considered FPA a good skill to have and hope to have an opportunity to increase my skills and perhaps become certified. You create an open learning environment which is more difficult to do via Web than in person. I personally find it easier to learn in a class environment because there is more interaction among students as well as between student and teacher, however you worked hard to overcome that constraint. Thanks for making this topic come alive. I look forward to working with you again.” - Project Manager, Global Telecommunications Company

“Instructor had excellent domain knowledge and was extremely well versed in the subject matter. She provided many study cases and constantly reminded us the rules we need to following and learn. Course content was very well organized. Difficult subject matter in that many of the concepts are abstract.” - Product System Designer, Global IT Services Supplier

"As our group tends to be rather critical, I am very pleased with the results – in particular, that most of the students attending the full training. We anticipate no barriers to applying their FP training on the job. I think this speaks to the quality of our instructor’s skills as a trainer, and the value of a 3+ day session that included counts of familiar projects." -VP Telecommunications Software Supplier
