Product Problem Solving

Helping innovators scale by building the right thing, the right way

Statler is a trusted partner for firms built (solely or partially) on software.

Our philosophy is that to succeed, you need to build the right thing. Not only that: You need to build the right thing, the right way.

If you fit into one of these categories, we can probably help you:

  1. You are just starting out and have specific issues, such as figuring out the right mix of technology + people + team topology + processes;

  2. You are looking for investors or clients and need product vision and/or technology credibility;

  3. You’ve already established yourself and have issues as you try to break through to the next level;

  4. You are a major player in your domain but smaller “up start” organisations are eating away at your market share;

  5. You need a partner to setup and run custom software development teams;

  6. You are working in the enterprise asset management (EAM) or asset performance management (APM) space and need help selecting or deploying systems and/or reviewing solution and integration architectures for business alignment.

Sometimes just seeing something familiar in a new way can make all the difference: we can help you crack tricky problems by offering unique perspectives.

Areas of Practice

Strategic Product Advice

To be successful, your product business needs a coherent strategy.

Darryl has a library of strategic methods and tools that have been developed and battle hardened by real world experience.
