NEXXT

What NEXXT does

NEXXT is a Dutch strategic IT consultancy and specialist staffing firm operating from offices in Amersfoort, Groningen, and Wognum, serving primarily mid-to-large Dutch organizations in healthcare, government, education, legal, agribusiness, logistics, and large MKB. The company was founded in 2000 and has more than 25 years of IT-services heritage, holding four Microsoft Solutions Partner designations (Modern Work, Infrastructure, Digital & App Innovation, Security) alongside ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 certifications at the holding level, and operating as part of the Odin Groep conglomerate following the 2026 transfer of its managed services business to fellow Odin subsidiary Previder.

NEXXT's core technology stack is Microsoft-centric: Azure cloud platform, Microsoft 365 (Teams, SharePoint, Outlook, OneDrive), Microsoft Security (Defender, Defender Vulnerability Management, Sentinel), Entra ID with PIM/RBAC, Power Automate, and Microsoft Copilot. Differentiated technical assets include an Infrastructure-as-Code practice using Terraform, Bicep, and ARM templates; a Governance-as-Code approach embedding Azure Policy and automated controls; a structured Data Sovereignty Framework; and three productized free diagnostic scans (Azure Governance Scan, AI Quick Scan, Data Risk Scan) that produce maturity scores without requiring email capture, serving as low-friction lead-generation mechanisms.

The business operates three engagement models — fixed-scope Project services, strategic Consultancy & Advisory (including CIO/CISO-level work), and Specialist Staffing/Detachment — sold through direct consultative sales to enterprise and government buyers in the Netherlands. Pricing is fully quote-based with multi-year contracts as the prevailing cadence, and the Northern Netherlands public-sector market is additionally addressed via the 'Northern Combination' consortium that has won the DUO IT staffing framework tender for three consecutive cycles.

Core offering

NEXXT is a Dutch strategic IT consultancy that helps mid-to-large organizations modernize, secure, and govern their IT environments using the Microsoft technology stack (Azure, Microsoft 365, Copilot, Defender, Sentinel). It delivers services through three engagement models — project implementation, strategic consultancy, and specialist staffing/detachment — spanning Security & Compliance, Cloud & Infrastructure, AI & Data, and Workplace Experience domains. Managed services activities were transferred to Previder (Odin Groep) in early 2026, with NEXXT now focused on consultative, high-value execution engagements.

Key assessment products include the AI Quick Scan (free 10-minute AI usage assessment for M365/Copilot environments), Data Risico Scan (data/cloud/dependency evaluation), and Azure Governance Scan (Azure maturity assessment). NEXXT delivers services through project implementation, strategic consultancy, and specialist staffing engagement models.
