iPS was one of the first players in the market and has always remained a business partner. Moving fast with short lines of communication is important for us and iPS can do that.

Van Oord and iPS have known each other for quite some time. Already in the early days of iPS, we made use of their services. The international character of our business and personal attention are closely related to the way iPS works. Our longterm relationship continued last spring. When we signed a renewed partnership agreement for the temporary staffing of our vessels.

As a company Boskalis aims to grow its offshore installation activities: wind farms for instance and everything associated with it. There is a lot of potential in this, so we have to adjust our organisation and bring in the required competencies. With iPS and other parties we work together in the field of staffing, focused on our project organisation. They have added value for our recruiters in exploring the market and have to be sharp and act fast. If you have your network into focus, you have an edge on the competition.’
