These projects are inherent to innovative solutions, which leads to the ability of Van Oord’s competitive edge.

Your aim is to support our commercial department and project teams both in tender and execution phase. When a new tender is assigned to you, you will start by interpreting and analysing the available documents. With your developing expertise on complex work methods, production details and deployment of different types of competitive equipment, you figure out a cost-efficient production process.
