Promad

What Promad does

Promad is a Dutch privately held project management and engineering consultancy founded in 2000 in Oudewater, Netherlands, by Rob Stekelenburg. It operates as a group of three wholly-owned subsidiaries: Promad Projecten BV (construction and infrastructure project management from permit to delivery and aftercare, including a Sustainable Multi-Year Maintenance Plan or DMJOP), Promad Ontwikkeling BV (real estate development, financing, management, and sales), and Promad WKB BV (quality assurance services under the Dutch Wet kwaliteitsborging). The firm employs more than 20 multidisciplinary professionals covering architectural design, Revit and AutoCAD drafting, structural engineering, work preparation, project leadership, inspection, and communications.

The company serves enterprise and government clients across the Netherlands, with a stated vertical specialization in the food processing sector (claimed top-of-Europe expertise), alongside industrial manufacturing, real estate, and municipal work. Named customers include Westfort, Kouwenhoven Vlees, Ameco, Esbro, Driessen Food, HA-Group, Groenland Kip, Holmatro, Kiremko, Ahoy, Meerbouw Rotterdam, Snel Hout en Rubber, Umia, Keramus, and Gemeente Rotterdam. GTM is direct, relationship-driven enterprise field sales; Promad positions itself as 'the only projectaanvoerder in the Netherlands.'

Revenue is generated through project-based professional services fees, with no publicly disclosed pricing. The firm supplements core project management with an ESG Quickscan tool co-developed with NewTone and emphasizes sustainability credentials: an energy-generating headquarters with ~200 solar panels, an 80% electric/hybrid fleet as of January 2026, EU Taxonomy alignment, CSRD transparency, and multiple BREEAM Outstanding project deliveries. Core technology is conventional BIM/CAD tooling rather than proprietary AI or software products.
