From the Founder
A message from Patrick G. Lurlay — founder, engineer, and builder of Daankwee Group.
Hello — and thank you for taking the time to visit Daankwee Group. My name is Patrick G. Lurlay, and I built this company with one purpose: to bring clarity, modern engineering, and deep technical leadership to organizations that serve the public.
Over my career, I’ve worked across aerospace, automotive, cloud infrastructure, and mission-driven technology companies. I’ve led teams, modernized systems, built global platforms, and supported agencies through critical digital transitions.
Daankwee Group represents the next chapter — a commitment to engineering excellence, cultural grounding, and building solutions that actually move communities forward. We help public-sector and civic organizations modernize systems, adopt cloud and AI, and deliver better digital experiences for the people they serve.
Outside of engineering, I’m also a lifelong storyteller — a creative commitment rooted in Liberia’s oral tradition. While this is a personal passion, the themes behind it — culture, heritage, and connection — shape the way I lead, build teams, and design technology.
Whether you're here to explore our consulting work or learn more about the vision behind Daankwee Group, I’m grateful you're here. This company is more than a business — it’s a legacy built on purpose, discipline, and service.
