Verkerk Healthcare

What Verkerk Healthcare does

Verkerk Healthcare is a Dutch healthcare technology company founded in 1984 and headquartered in Zwijndrecht, Netherlands. The company develops and implements healthcare information systems and tailored solutions for the elderly care (ouderenzorg) and disability care (gehandicaptenzorg) sectors in the Netherlands. Its core product is the NOVI zorginformatieplatform, a SaaS and IaaS-based healthcare information platform that centralizes care information, integrates with third-party sensors and existing ECD (electronic client dossier) systems, and delivers real-time notifications, status updates, and care alerts through an intuitive employee application. NOVI is designed to eliminate routine administrative tasks, accelerate onboarding of new staff, and provide objective wellbeing insights for shift handoffs and MDO meetings.

Verkerk Healthcare operates on a dual revenue model combining recurring SaaS subscriptions for the NOVI platform with professional services revenue from healthcare consultancy (zorgconsultancy), information scans (informatiescan), chain management (ketenregie), and custom technology implementations. The company follows a consultative sales-led GTM, engaging directly with healthcare organizations (zorgorganisaties) to understand needs and deliver project-based implementations backed by 24/7 service support. Marketing channels include website content, the annual Zorg & ICT beurs healthcare IT trade show, a branded podcast series ('De zorg echt vooruit met NOVI'), and LinkedIn recruitment.

The company is a subsidiary of VINCI Energies, an international energy and digital services conglomerate, which provides structural backing and distribution leverage. Verkerk Healthcare rebranded from Verkerk Service Systemen to its current name in September 2024. The NOVI platform holds NEN 7510, 7512, and 7513 certifications for healthcare information security and is compliant with the EU NIS2 directive. Named reference customers include Vilente, Wijdezorg, De Lichtkring, CuraMare, and Cardia, all Dutch elderly care organizations.

Direct peers

• Nedap Healthcare: Dutch healthcare technology provider offering the Ons platform for elderly, disability, and home care organizations. Directly comparable as a Netherlands-based SaaS suite serving the same elderly/disability care verticals with integration and workflow capabilities similar to NOVI.
• Tenzinger: Netherlands-based provider of care organization software (Care2Communicate, Nedap Ons predecessor lines) used by elderly and disability care providers. Directly comparable as a Dutch care vertical software specialist competing for similar customers.
• PinkRoccade Healthcare: Dutch healthcare IT vendor supplying administrative and care software to care organizations. Comparable as a domestic SaaS/IT vendor serving Dutch care providers with workflow, registration, and administrative modules overlapping NOVI's positioning.
• Chipsoft: Major Dutch EHR (HiX/CCS) provider serving hospitals and care organizations. Comparable as a healthcare IT platform serving Dutch care providers, and a likely integration partner or competitive suite that NOVI must interoperate with or differentiate against.

Broad incumbents

• Philips Health Systems: Global incumbent offering patient monitoring, telehealth, and connected care solutions including elderly/frail population offerings. Comparable as a much larger player with overlapping connected-care and monitoring capabilities relevant to NOVI's sensor integration value proposition.
• Tunstall Healthcare: UK-headquartered provider of telecare, PERS, and connected care solutions for elderly populations across Europe. Comparable as an established player offering elderly monitoring and connected care technology that overlaps with NOVI's wellbeing monitoring and sensor integration scope.
• Ascom: European healthcare communications and nurse call/mobility vendor with deep presence in Dutch and European care homes. Comparable through overlapping alerting, notification, and care communication workflows that compete with NOVI's zorgalarmering and notification capabilities.

Regional players

• Cormel IT: Dutch IT services provider for healthcare and elderly care organizations. Comparable as a regional Dutch IT vendor offering technology implementations and support services to similar care provider customers, although smaller and less product-led than Verkerk.

Others

• Kepler Vision Technologies: Dutch computer vision company specializing in elderly care fall detection and behavior monitoring. Already a strategic integration partner for NOVI; comparable as an adjacent technology provider whose capabilities NOVI distributes to care customers.
• Thebe Wonen: Dutch elderly care provider and NOVI customer adjacent in the ecosystem. While not a software competitor, it represents the type of regional care organization Verkerk serves and signals downstream customer profile comparability.
