Why make it difficult when it can be done together?

More cooperation in construction teams. According to VentilatieService B.V., a specialist in ventilation systems, this is needed to bring a breath of fresh air to the renovation industry, among others. 

"In housing construction, renovation is increasingly applied in clusters and thus not per block or single dwelling," explains Rein van Gasteren of VentilatieService B.V. "Projects of such scale require the combination of various specialties and installation forms. This is only possible with an integral approach. This requires the installer to be familiar with sustainable installations, both in terms of materials and techniques. The installer must also be able to design and work with different disciplines. Partners should not be chosen based on price, but on competencies. Consider quality and innovation, commitment, reliability, process optimization and putting the end user first."

Winning team
Which partner offers which added value? When the client has a clear picture of this, he can build a "winning team": a construction team with skilled players, who make optimal use of each other's qualities and grant each other something. If the players enter into a long-term cooperation with each other, the collaboration will become better and more efficient with each subsequent project. Van Gasteren sees a lot of added value in this: "Why break up a team after a project goes well? Why probe and try each time? That's wasted time and costs money. We prefer to put our energy into optimizing processes and further reducing inconvenience to residents." 

Integral cooperation in planned maintenance.

Total approach
With Van Gasteren, VentilatieService B.V. has more than twenty years of experience installing, advising, maintaining and selling ventilation systems. "The added value within a construction team is our total approach," says Van Gasteren. "Our years of experience and knowledge come into their own from the very beginning of a project. We can turn a program of requirements into a preliminary design with a budget. We can also take care of the follow-up process. Think of the final design, engineering, work preparation and informing the target group." 

Social antenna
During execution, Van Gasteren believes that the end user must be fully central to every party. "With us, this is reflected in prefabrication, among other things. The components to be installed are delivered ready-to-use as much as possible, so the fitters are only working in the house for a short time. In addition, our fitters are used to working in an inhabited situation. Afterwards, they leave the house tidy. In addition, they have a so-called social antenna. For example, they help move or cover furniture and are very understanding towards residents. You can imagine that older residents in particular are not always waiting for a renovation."

Ready for the future
"Because of our approach, short lines of communication and flexible attitude, we are able to respond quickly and efficiently to the client's wishes," Van Gasteren concludes. "Consider, for example, the integration of sustainable and intelligent systems that contribute to healthy and comfortable living. In this way, together with our construction team partners, we make the existing housing stock ready for the future again.
