What DVP Smart Concepts does

DVP Smart Concepts is a Dutch technical building installation advisory firm founded in March 2018 and headquartered in Den Haag, with a second office in Eindhoven. The company operates as the installation and energy consulting arm of the Diepenhorst de Vos en Partners holding, which encompasses five additional sister companies covering project management, cost management, plan development, BIM management, building technical execution, and real estate advisory. With approximately 10 employees holding more than 100 years of combined installation industry experience, DVP Smart Concepts serves property owners, real estate developers, investors, architects, engineering firms, and government entities undertaking new build, renovation, or redevelopment projects across the Netherlands.

The firm offers a full-service advisory stack covering feasibility studies, installation concept and design, installation cost advice, execution supervision, second opinion and technical due diligence, and post-occupancy comfort and energy analysis. Its proprietary technology layer centers on Optiserver, a data platform providing real-time insight into building and installation performance (energy consumption, indoor comfort, fault detection), complemented by a configurable KPI Dashboard. The company also conducts CRREM analyses and WEii score determinations to align buildings with Paris Proof targets, and applies BIM management practices across project delivery. Notable client engagements include RED Company (Think District Amsterdam, RISE Rotterdam, Vrijhaven Amsterdam), Royal FloraHolland (Aalsmeer East expansion), Janssen Biologics & Janssen Vaccines (Leiden Bio Science Park), Flow Real Estate, Westcord Hotels, INCLUDED City Development (The Grace Den Haag), and Energiecoöperatie Ketelhuis (KetelhuisWG aquathermy project).

DVP Smart Concepts generates revenue exclusively through project-based professional services commissions, with no public pricing or product-based distribution. Engagement scope spans from feasibility through exploitation, with anchor projects ranging from 1,000 m² to over 200,000 m² BVO. The firm is privately held, has no disclosed external funding, and operates solely within the Netherlands.
