Stip-IT

What Stip-IT does

Stip-IT is a Netherlands-based IT talent broker founded in February 2021 that connects Dutch organizations with technical students and starters (HBO and WO level) for flexible IT staffing engagements. The firm operates as a two-sided intermediary, sourcing motivated early-career technical talent and matching them to client needs through a three-step consultative process (need assessment, candidate matching within 24 hours, contract-to-onboarding support), with placements ranging from three weeks to multi-year programs.

The company's service portfolio spans six offerings: Servicedesk, Werkplekbeheer (workplace management), Floorwalking, Inspoelen werkplekken (device provisioning of laptops, smartphones, and tablets), Verhuizing (workplace relocation), and Software/BI/Data development. Delivery is performed by placed talent at client sites or remotely. The firm does not operate a proprietary technology platform or AI system; its primary 'technology' is the curated talent pool and the matching process. A minor external partnership with Smeets IT covers website design and development.

Stip-IT generates revenue on a usage-based, hourly billing model — clients are invoiced only for actual hours worked by placed talent — with competitive positioning attributed to a low-overhead operating structure (approximately 11 employees coordinating 50+ client organizations). The go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-based, relying on direct outreach, the company website, word-of-mouth, and case studies. The firm serves both profit and non-profit organizations nationally across government (e.g., Gemeente Veenendaal), healthcare (e.g., GGD Hollands Midden, Haga Ziekenhuis, Laurentius, Pieter van Foreest), education (Christelijke Onderwijs Groep), legal (BarentsKrans), engineering (Vuyk Engineering), and construction/industrial (Eskens Group) sectors. No funding rounds, acquisitions, or external investors are disclosed.
