Niebeek Milieumanagement B.V. is a privately held Dutch environmental consultancy founded circa 1988 and headquartered in Leusden, Netherlands. The firm specializes in the preparation and supervision of dredging works (baggerwerken) and nature development projects, serving Dutch waterschappen, municipalities, provinces, Rijkswaterstaat, and nature management organizations such as Natuurmonumenten. Its core service lines cover the full project lifecycle: waterbed research (Waterbodemonderzoek) compliant with NEN5717/NEN5720 and SIKB BRL 2000/6000 protocols; KRW (European Water Framework Directive) and Natura 2000 advisory; AERIUS nitrogen deposition calculations; contract drafting and tendering (RAW, UAV-GC, BVP); directievoering and toezicht (construction supervision); milieukundige begeleiding; and nature & ecology services including flora/fauna quickscans and ecological supervision. Field operations rely on specialized equipment (alucraft boats, RTK-GPS, single-beam echo sounders, suction corers, Van Veen grabs, Rhizon samplers) and office processing on ArcGIS, AutoCAD 2D/3D, and the WDB database.

The firm's business model is professional services, with revenue generated through project-based engagements, public tenders, bouwteam arrangements, and multi-year framework agreements (raamovereenkomsten) with public-sector clients. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. Niebeek holds ISO 9001:2015 (EC-KWA-01460), BRL SIKB 2000 (EC-SIK-20308), BRL SIKB 6000 (EC-SIK-60068), and CO2 Prestatieladder Level 3 (NC-CO2-00183) certifications, and its Leusden office holds Energy Label A following a 2019 retrofit. Notable project-scale signals include framework contracts covering ~70,000 m3/year of dredging (Rotterdam), supervision of 10+ km of waterways, single execution contracts up to 200,000 m3, and bouwteam participation in a ~480,000 m3 Zuid-Holland dredging project. The firm is currently investing in emission-free execution (electric fleet from 2025, hydrogen-vessel deployment via Verboos Maasland, biogas-powered equipment via Powercrumbs/Genpower) to align with public-sector sustainability procurement criteria.
