« Stellar's intervention transformed a frozen project into a clear, actionable plan aligned with our strategy. Their ability to challenge without imposing, to coach without dominating, made all the difference. Without them, I wouldn't have been able to get the group moving so quickly. »

Mission

Ector has set itself a mission: to simplify airport and station journeys by making valet parking accessible to all.With revenues of €10 million, 15 hubs in France, a fleet of independent valets and an API distributed by airports, the scale-up is entering its third phase of life: that of a mature tech company.

How Stellar supported Ector

Concrete results & a realigned tech trajectory

Stellar's support enabled Ector to get out of its technical rut, restore clarity to the management team and strengthen the position of its CPTO. The result: a relaunched migration, an activated plan, and a clearer organization to support growth.

  • A prioritized and validated migration plan: the roadmap has been clarified, sequenced and supported at strategic level, enabling rapid implementation.
  • A CTO supported and refocused on his priorities: thanks to mentoring, Simon was able to structure his decisions, better defend his decisions and regain impact.
  • Clarified Product-Tech governance: everyone's role has been redefined, laying the foundations for a more robust and scalable target organization.
  • A renewed dynamic despite a reduced team: quick wins helped secure the legacy while preparing for the future: recruitment, delivery and product vision.
Challenge

From problem to solution: How Ector overcame its challenges

Ector aced a number of challenges that hampered its growth and development. Here's how Stellar helped them overcome these obstacles to accelerate their growth and achieve their goals.

#1 Migration blocked

The tech redesign had been stagnating for over a year, with no clear plan or shared priorities

Prioritized and activatable migration plan

A clear plan was jointly drawn up, validated by the Codir and launched as soon as the audit was completed

#2 Tensions between product vision and operational urgencies

With no Product Manager or Product structure, decisions lacked a business framework

Preparing product structuring

A target Tech/Product organization has been defined to support growth over the next 12-24 months.

#3 Isolated technical leadership

Without clear relays or a shared decision-making framework, structuring choices accumulated without fluid arbitration, slowing down the process of gaining perspective and making long-term progress.

Targeted mentoring

Tailor-made support eabled him to clarify his priorities, secure his decisions and better align Tech with business challenges.
