Calm, control and safety in a growing organization

Challenges with assets in a technical environment
Anyone visiting Broshuis in Kampen will undoubtedly be impressed. They have been in business since 1885, making them the oldest manufacturer of special trailers in the Netherlands. With an extensive range of high-quality and durable semi-low loaders, low loaders, flat trailers and container chassis, Broshuis supplies national and international customers such as the US military, wind turbine and crane transporters and other heavy transport organizations. Due to growth, increasingly stringent regulations and changing customer requirements, it was necessary to drastically professionalize their technical department.
