Molenaar&Plasman Solutions

What Molenaar&Plasman Solutions does

Molenaar&Plasman Solutions B.V. (MNP Solutions) is a Dutch professional services consultancy founded in 2009 and headquartered in Breukelen, Netherlands, with a secondary presence in Amersfoort following the February 2023 merger with InTECHrity. The firm specializes in information security, privacy, and quality management advisory, organized around three service hubs — Security, Privacy, and Quality — and an associated e-learning platform, MNP Academy. Core offerings are consultancy engagements (not software products) covering implementation, certification, and ongoing maintenance of standards including ISO 27001, ISO 9001, ISO 27701, NEN 7510, ISO 20000, ISAE 3402, ISO 18295, and regulatory frameworks such as NIS2 (Cyberbeveiligingswet), GDPR/AVG, and the EU AI Act. The company is itself certified to ISO 27001:2022, ISO 27701:2019, and ISO 9001:2015 (issued by Kiwa in May 2024), positioning the firm's own operations as a reference implementation.

MNP sells exclusively through direct, consultative sales — no resellers, marketplaces, or self-serve channels — targeting Dutch digital agencies, healthcare-adjacent organizations, NIS2-scoped essential and important entities, and SMB/mid-market companies across sectors including telecom (Enreach, Dstny), software (AIMMS), contact centers (2Contact), credit management (Certin), staffing (Circle8), and IT services (STH Automatisering, Advisor ICT Solutions). Pricing is quote-based with multi-year maintenance contracts; the website features an indicative ISO 27001 ROI calculator but no public price list. Demand generation is content-led through a 40+ article blog, organic SEO, podcasts (e.g., Hack van de Dam), and email newsletters, supplemented by referrals and industry association memberships in NLdigital and Samen Digitaal Veilig.

The firm is privately held with ownership concentrated in the founding partners, Jeroen Molenaar and René Plasman, and operates with no disclosed external funding. Credibility signals include four consecutive FD Gazelle Awards (2021–2024), an NPS of +74, and an average customer rating of 8.8/10. A December 2025 announcement of an AI Security capability investment signals expansion into AI governance advisory alongside existing ISO and NIS2 work.

Broad incumbents

• KPMG Netherlands: Big 4 firm offering cybersecurity, ISO 27001, NIS2, and privacy advisory through its Risk Consulting practice — competes head-to-head for enterprise certifications and CISO-level engagements.
• BDO Netherlands: Global professional services firm with a dedicated cybersecurity, privacy, and risk advisory practice in the Netherlands — competes for the same enterprise and mid-market ISO/NIS2 mandates at a larger scale.
• DNV (Business Assurance Netherlands): Global certification body and advisory firm offering ISO 27001, ISO 9001, and management system certification — adjacent competitor since DNV both certifies and increasingly consults on the same standards MNP implements.
• Bureau Veritas Netherlands: International testing, inspection, and certification company with cybersecurity and ISO certification lines — competes with MNP on certification readiness engagements for Dutch clients.
• TÜV Nederland: Dutch arm of global TIC firm offering ISO certification and advisory across information security and quality management — competes for ISO 27001, 9001, and 27701 readiness projects in the same SMB/mid-market segment.
• Deloitte Netherlands: Big 4 firm with a Cyber & Strategic Risk practice delivering NIS2, ISO, and AI governance services — comparable on regulatory advisory but with broader portfolio and deeper enterprise relationships.

Direct peers

• Considerati: Amsterdam-based privacy and data protection consultancy offering GDPR/AVG advisory, DPO-as-a-service, and AI governance — directly comparable to MNP's Privacy Hub and emerging AI Act work in the Dutch mid-market.
• Privacy Company: Dutch consultancy focused on GDPR implementation, privacy impact assessments, and DPO services — directly comparable niche competitor for MNP's privacy advisory engagements.
• Duthler Associates: Dutch consultancy specialized in privacy law, GDPR, and information security advisory serving SMB and enterprise clients — overlapping service portfolio and target segment with MNP's Privacy and Security Hubs.

Emerging players

• Fox-IT (NCC Group): Dutch-origin cybersecurity specialist (now part of NCC Group) offering managed security, threat intelligence, and security advisory — overlaps with MNP's Security Hub on advisory, though at a more technical and operational depth.
