What Civiele technieken deBoer bv does

Civiele technieken deBoer bv is a Dutch specialist civil engineering contractor headquartered in Nieuwegein, Utrecht, established in 1932 and currently employing approximately 40 staff within the larger SealteQ Group (Marconi Holding). The company delivers heavy displacement and structural services — jacking (vijzeltechnieken), sliding (schuiftechnieken), pressing (perstechnieken), maintenance and renovation, measuring and monitoring, and support and steel constructions — for bridges, tunnels, rail infrastructure, buildings, and unique special projects. Its equipment fleet of roughly 2,000 hydraulic jacks (3-697 ton capacity, up to 700 bar), 3,000+ modular support units, and proprietary assets such as the Hijsloods self-climbing construction shed (capable of climbing to 210m with 2x36-ton integrated cranes) and FBG-based Structural Health Monitoring systems underpin millimeter-precision execution on live infrastructure. Geographically it operates primarily in the Netherlands, with active international projects in Switzerland, France, Belgium, and historically Suriname.

The company operates a project-based, professional services revenue model acquired through tender processes and direct commercial relationships with government infrastructure owners (Rijkswaterstaat, ProRail, municipalities such as Zutphen and Schiedam) and tier-one construction primes (BAM, Dura Vermeer, Ballast Nedam, Bouygues, Eiffage, Jan de Nul, Q-Park). It functions either as main contractor for specialized work packages or as subcontractor on larger infrastructure programs. A secondary revenue stream rents specialized equipment (hydraulic systems, support structures, monitoring equipment) alongside advisory support. Certifications relevant to public and rail tenders — ISO 9001, ISO 14001, VCA**, Safety Culture Ladder Trede 3, CO2 Prestatieladder, SNCF accreditation, and EXC4 steel execution class (via sister company Rijnstaal) — are central to its ability to compete. Within SealteQ Group, it operates as an independent division alongside Rijnstaal Nieuwegein and Lasbedrijf de Rooij, leveraging the group's 18 locations and ~620 specialists for integrated steel-civil bids while retaining its own identity and management.
