EDControls Netherlands

What EDControls Netherlands does

Ed Controls is a cloud-based SaaS construction management platform developed and sold by Dutchview information technology B.V., headquartered in Deventer, Netherlands. The software targets the execution phase of building projects — specifically quality assurance under the Dutch Wet kwaliteitsborging (Wkb) — and is organized around three core modules: Tickets (digital action points linked to drawings, with assignment, photo attachments, and a four-stage workflow), Audits (customizable digital checklists for inspections and handovers), and a Dashboard (project analytics covering ticket counts, label frequency, and audit status). Add-on modules include SecurEd (a high-security variant for defense, government, oil platform, and offline construction-site environments with local-server data storage), Locator (GPS-based geo-referencing of tickets on floor plans), and Reporter (third-party action-point submission). The platform is delivered through a web application (web.edcontrols.com) plus native iOS and Android apps with offline synchronization, and exposes a REST API with SSO and two-factor authentication.

The company's commercial model is subscription-based, offered in Professional, Pro, and Expert tiers under multi-year contracts; pricing is not publicly disclosed. A distinctive buyer-pays mechanic means only the main contractor pays for access, while subcontractors and external partners are invited free of charge, which drives broad ecosystem adoption. Go-to-market combines a product-led free trial on the website with a sales-assisted enterprise motion including dedicated account managers and a demo-request flow. Ed Controls is sold in the Netherlands, Germany, the UK, and the United States through localized websites and direct-sales channels. The customer base spans tier-one Dutch contractors (VolkerWessels, Heijmans, Trebbe, Klokgroep, Plegt-Vos, Hurks, Jorritsma Bouw, De Vries en Verburg, Janssen de Jong Bouw), installation and engineering firms (Unica, GEA, D-TACS, Van der Sluis, Brands Bouw, ADST, Jajo, Plegt-Vos), and adjacent verticals such as McDonald's construction projects and the Valley Amsterdam development. The platform reports 162,000+ users, 19 million tickets created, 2 million audits created, an 8.6 customer satisfaction score, and integrates with Woub, SharePoint, DigiOffice, DocStream, HomeCTRL, KYP Project, and Volgjewoning.

Ed Controls holds ISO 9001:2015 and ISO/IEC 27001:2013 certifications issued by DNV and has published a NIS 2 compliance statement. The business is privately held under Dutchview information technology B.V. with no disclosed external funding, M&A activity, or revenue figures; primary contact channels are [email protected] / +31 570 724 021 and [email protected] / +31 570 572 214.
