Prodicom, a leading specialist in IT staffing and IT projects, will now operate under the Hands on ICT banner. This strategic merger strengthens the combined expertise in cloud, networking, IT infrastructures, and IT security. With this acquisition, Hands on ICT takes a significant step in its growth strategy and expands its ICT service portfolio.

With the combined strength of 160 professionals, Hands on ICT, together with Prodicom, becomes an even larger player in the IT services market. By combining the Managed Service Provider (MSP) services of Hands on ICT with Prodicom’s staffing and project capabilities, a broader range of ICT solutions and support can be offered. Prodicom will continue under its own brand, supported by Hands on ICT, and current services for clients will remain unchanged.

Hands on ICT is a leading Managed Service Provider focused on delivering practical and reliable ICT solutions. With over 25 years of experience, Hands on ICT offers a wide range of services, including workplace management, network management, cybersecurity, cloud solutions, and IT support. Hands on ICT is known for its hands-on approach, where personal attention and customization are key. With three locations spread across the Netherlands, Hands on ICT provides excellent nationwide coverage. Through continuous innovation and customer focus, Hands on ICT remains a trusted partner in the dynamic world of ICT services.

Prodicom, based near Amsterdam, primarily focuses on IT staffing and IT contracting and has expanded its services in recent years to include projects and Managed Services. Prodicom, synonymous with “Professionals who communicate,” is known for its innovative and people-centered approach, which aligns well with the culture of Hands on ICT.

René van Klaveren, CEO and owner of Hands on ICT, said: "With this strategic merger and close collaboration, we are combining our strengths to maintain a strong position in the ICT market. This allows us to continue operating independently as an IT service provider, giving us the flexibility to remain innovative and customer-focused. Most importantly, we can now offer a very diverse range of ICT services, enabling us to better support our clients with their needs."

Tim van der Putten, Chief Financial Officer of Prodicom, added: “With the departure of Joppe van de Straat, one of the owners and co-founders of the company, we have been seeking reinforcement since the summer of 2023. We found this reinforcement with Hands on ICT, whose core focus is Managed Services. The personal connection was there from the first meeting. Prodicom will continue to contribute to the group’s success within our areas of expertise.”
