Eurofiber signs partnership agreements with four contractors

Maarssen, January 24, 2024 – Eurofiber Netherlands has signed new contracts with BAM Telecom, Circet Netherlands, Siers Telecom and SPIE Netherlands for laying fiber connections. The agreements are for a period of five years.

These renewed contracts extend the existing partnerships with the four companies. In addition to laying fiber, BAM Telecom and SPIE Netherlands have signed on for maintenance and damage repairs to the Eurofiber fiberoptic network. Meile de Haan, group director of Network Infra at Eurofiber: “BAM, Circet Netherlands, Siers and SPIE have made significant contributions to Eurofiber’s rapid expansion in recent years. Digital infrastructure is crucial to our customers, which include government authorities, utilities, telecom providers and large enterprises – and that’s why we place high demands on our supply chain partners. Accordingly, I’m delighted that we have signed new agreements with all four.”

Demand for business fiber connections continues to grow. Companies and organizations not only need new connections, but are also increasingly requesting a second or even third connection at the same location, guaranteeing availability at all times. De Haan: “Seamless collaboration with our contractors is a vital part of delivering the quality that our customers expect from Eurofiber. In addition, this partnership also means that we are constantly working together to identify more ways to improve. Innovation is therefore an important part of the new agreements, with the goal of further streamlining network construction, allowing us to connect our customers even faster and more cost-effectively. Increasing sustainability throughout the chain is another task that we will be addressing jointly with our partners.”

Jeroen Wijnen, director of BAM Telecom: “BAM Telecom is investing in cooperation that leads to trust and a long-term partnership with Eurofiber.

We are also taking our service to a higher level by intensifying our focus on the quality and experience that Eurofiber and its customers demand from us.”

Russell Crye, CCO at Circet Benelux, emphasizes the solidity of the company’s long-standing partnership with Eurofiber, spanning over two decades. “The recent five-year contract extension confirms the strength of our partnership, rooted in shared values, with a shared focus on quality, customer satisfaction, delivery reliability and safe working practices.
