What can we do for you?
Here is some examples of the project we recently excecuted.
01.
Commercial Strategy - NMT
Netherlands Maritime Technology (NMT), the branch organization for the Dutch maritime supplier domain, faced challenges in its innovation department. By offering industry knowledge, and proficiency in budgeting and strategy, we revitalized the department's plan in a 12-week project in close collaboration with colleagues at NMT.
Our focus was on redefining the value proposition of innovation projects, integrating them better within NMT, enhancing their relevance for members, and refining financial reporting. Strengthening inter-departmental collaboration was also a priority.
The outcomes were tangible: two new team members were recruited, financial reporting saw significant improvement, and the innovation projects found a more defined place within NMT. This clears the way for growth of the innovation department, ensuring Dutch maritime suppliers maintain their position as innovators.

10 week Sales Sprint - Greener Power Solutions
Greener Power Solutions is the world's largest company for renting containerized batteries, mainly focusing on land-based solutions. Recently, we explored the potential of expanding into offshore and maritime markets and identified new applications.
During the Sales Sprint we made a thorough market overview, we pinpointed new markets, with a special emphasis on shore power. Listed and engaged with relevant parties and generating new leads. The outcome? A noticeable shift in the sales team's focus towards shore power, leading to a significant increase in revenue from this area.
Notably, Greener's containerized batteries played a crucial role in a groundbreaking project—the first Dutch electric tugboat with containerized batteries.
