Where we fit

Our services across your development lifecycle

Physical products follow the V-model, where every step on the left is verified by its partner on the right. Web and cloud platforms follow a continuous delivery pipeline. We work in both, so requirements and the evidence that proves them stay connected.

System development Software development, including machine learning Hardware development Testing and test automation: the verification side Quality and compliance: supporting processes across every step

How we work

Four ways to work with us

Dedicated engineer

One or more engineers work only on your projects, in your team and tools. Best when you have a clear backlog and someone to direct the work.

Monthly fee per engineer

Managed team

Four or more engineers plus our team lead, who plans, reviews and reports. Capacity without extra management load for you.

Monthly fee, team lead included

Fixed-scope package

We deliver an agreed result by an agreed date, with acceptance criteria written down before we start.

Fixed price per milestone

Advisory

Short expert assignments in the Netherlands: quick scans, audit preparation and coaching of project teams.

Security and contracting

Built for teams that are careful with their IP

Working with a team outside the EU raises fair questions, especially with patient or financial data. Here is how we answer them.

Your code stays in your systems

Engineers work only inside your environment through your VPN or virtual desktops, on managed, encrypted laptops with local storage and USB blocked.

A Dutch contract partner

You contract with Polderbridge Engineering B.V. under Dutch law. We are responsible for our whole team, with a Dutch account lead as your single contact.

Export-control check first

Before a project starts we confirm the export classification with you. We only take on work that may be done from Egypt, and leave controlled parts with EU-based staff.

Personal data handled properly

We test with synthetic or anonymised data and keep patient and customer data out of scope where we can. Where we can't, we sign a data processing agreement and the EU Standard Contractual Clauses.

Your IP is yours

Every engineer signs an NDA and assigns IP to you. Access is named, uses multi-factor login and is removed within 24 hours of any change.

Ready for your supplier checks

We answer security questionnaires and provide the information you need for supplier audits and for your DORA register of ICT third-party providers.

Evidence for your auditors

Reviewed changes, test results and release records are kept as part of the work, so they are ready when your auditor or notified body asks.

Continuity built in

If an engineer leaves or doesn't meet your expectations, you get a replacement within 4 weeks at no extra cost, including handover.
