What Attached does

Attached B.V. is a privately held Dutch IT services company founded in 1997 and headquartered in Nieuwegein, Netherlands. The company operates two complementary service lines: Detachering (staffing/detachment) of certified IT professionals into client teams, and Projecten (project execution) delivered against agreed scope, planning, and budget. Its core offering centers on ICT infrastructure management across public, private, and hybrid cloud environments, with Microsoft (particularly Azure) as the primary technology partner and complementary specialization in AWS, Google Cloud, VMware, Citrix, and OpenSource. Services are delivered on a sales-led, relationship-driven basis into Dutch organizations across diverse sectors, with no disclosed geographic expansion beyond the Netherlands.

The company employs approximately 30 professionals placed at and working for clients, supported by a fixed backoffice team. Revenue is generated through professional-services fees — typically hourly or daily rates for deployed professionals and project-based fees for engagements — with publicly disclosed salary bands ranging from EUR 1,800 to EUR 7,500 per month depending on role seniority. Pricing to clients is not publicly disclosed. Attached is founder/owner-operated, led by Algemeen Directeur Bartjan Oskam and Financieel Directeur Rene Elling, with no institutional investors, parent company, or M&A activity identified in the source data. Sustainability initiatives (solar panels, electric vehicles) and a culture-led employer brand position the company primarily as a talent-attraction vehicle rather than a technology differentiator.
