Dura Vermeer Accelerates Digital Transformation
Since Ilze Cools took the helm of IT in 2023, major changes have been set in motion. The cloud migration now has a clear vision, and all processes are included in a renewed transformation plan. IT is no longer a ‘black box’: employees are actively informed through monthly updates and quarterly newsletters.

Digitalization is speeding up work on construction sites, with AI solutions such as helmet cameras for quality control and the Autodesk platform for digital building. All data is moving to the cloud, supported by a uniform policy and cost-conscious archiving.

Employees play a key role: through an AI community and an annual innovation award, we encourage ideas and engagement. Sustainability is also a priority, from reusing hardware to smart cloud management.

Step by step, Dura Vermeer is evolving into a data-driven, digital organization where technology, people, and vision come together.
