We are pleased to announce the appointment of Derek Cesarz and Dan Luttner as Managing Partners. In their new roles, they will leverage their long partnership to lead the expansion of Argon & Co’s System Integration (SI) business, NEOS by Argon & Co, further strengthening the firm’s end-to-end capabilities globally.
With decades of combined experience in supply chain transformation, enterprise planning systems, and implementation leadership, Derek and Dan bring deep expertise and complementary skill sets to Argon & Co. Their leadership will be instrumental in building a globally connected SI offering that is both technically robust and tightly aligned to business outcomes.
Derek, who is based in Lancaster, PA, is known for his strategic mindset and ability to lead complex programs from vision through delivery. His background spans planning, inventory optimization, and advanced analytics across a range of industries.
“I’ve always believed that great consulting is built on strong relationships,” said Dan Luttner. “Clients are looking for more than execution — they want clarity, momentum, and a partner who stays with them from planning through go-live. That’s exactly what we’re building at Argon & Co, and I’m thrilled to be a part of it.”
Dan, based in Pittsburgh, PA, will focus on business development and client growth, particularly across Retail, CPG, Distribution, and Manufacturing. His commercial leadership and technology partnership experience will support both global and regional expansion.
“Derek and Dan bring the insight, credibility, and energy we need to scale our SI capabilities,” said Simon Clarke, Managing Partner, Argon & Co North America. “They understand the technical landscape, but more importantly, they understand clients — how to lead change, solve real problems, and build lasting value.”
“This is another important strategic move as we continue to expand our US presence and global capabilities,” said Paul Eastwood, who leads the North America growth plans. “Our clients around the world are asking for support that spans strategy, implementation, and ongoing enablement. With Dan and Derek onboard leading the SI business, we’re positioned to deliver consistent, high-quality integration services across the globe.”
The addition of Derek and Dan marks a significant milestone in Argon & Co’s ongoing commitment to operational excellence, expanding its service model to include full-service implementation and integration capabilities at scale.
