Pharox

What Pharox does

Pharox operates a software platform for Dutch local governments under the Progresity brand, focused on public space (openbare ruimte) management. Its product suite includes GeoVisia (inspection and inventory management, described as the most widely used software of its kind in the Dutch municipal market), GeoVisia Work (mobile workforce management with online/offline field operation support), BinnenBeter (municipal incident handling), BuitenBeter (citizen reporting app that positions residents as 'eyes and ears' of public space), the Smart City Integration Platform (SCIP) for cross-application data sharing and standards translation, and the more recently surfaced Rioolviewer for sewer inspection.

The underlying technology is a cloud-based SaaS platform with GIS integration, sensor data ingestion, and a data standardization layer, structured around a plan-do-check-act process framework covering inwinning (data collection), meldingen (notifications), monitoring, beheer (management), planning, uitvoering (execution), toezicht (supervision), and verbinding (connection). The architecture is deliberately modular and designed to interoperate via SCIP, allowing municipalities to expand from a single discipline to multi-discipline deployments over time.

Revenue is generated primarily through annual subscriptions to the SaaS products (GeoVisia, GeoVisia Work, BinnenBeter, SCIP), supplemented by professional services for implementation/configuration (Consultancy) and end-user training (Trainingen). Pricing is custom and quote-based, consistent with enterprise government procurement. The go-to-market is sales-led, direct to Dutch municipalities, and supported by the Conxillium group partnership. Customer evidence includes Gemeente Gouda, Gemeente Eindhoven, Gemeente Pijnacker-Nootdorp, Gemeente Oosterhout, Gemeente Vlissingen, Gemeente Achtkarspelen, Werkorganisatie Duivenvoorde, Gemeente Papendrecht, Gemeente Amersfoort, Gemeente Huizen, and Gemeente Lelystad. The company is headquartered in Capelle aan den IJssel with a postal address in Rotterdam, operates 11-50 employees, and is a subsidiary of the Conxillium group.
