The assessment committee praised Between Staffing on technological development and ensuring the well-being of deployed ICT professionals. The intended cooperation with the Participants was also rated well. With this, the government confirms its trust in the services of HeadFirst, powered by Vertage, in which professional expertise, operational strength and people-oriented guidance are central.

This award is a confirmation of our long-standing cooperation with the Dutch Tax and Customs Administration, Toeslagen and Douane. Together, we ensure that our clients can count on the right professionals, at the right time. Our approach works: people-oriented, professionally strong and always in connection with the client."
