Global weather services providers Infoplaza BV and BMT ARGOSS BV announced Thursday they will combine activities with immediate effect to build a stronger position in the Dutch weather market as well as the international offshore and marine industries.
Joint operations will be headquartered at the Infoplaza offices in Houten. In the short term both companies will continue to operate under their own brands.
In recent years BMT ARGOSS has established a significant share in the international offshore and marine industry, with a strong focus on producing high quality forecasts derived from knowledge and experience of high resolution modelling. Infoplaza has developed a high level of expertise in creating user friendly weather dashboards for many business industries, and in 2017 developed an innovative Offshore Weather Support (OWS) system.
Jean-Paul Lindeboom, managing director of BMT ARGOSS, said, “Through the collaboration with Infoplaza our clients will notice improvements in visualization and presentation of high quality marine forecasts. This will help our clients to plan and optimize operations more effectively and safely.
Menno Bom, owner and founder of Infoplaza, added, “Increasing capacity to over 60 colleagues will also enable us to respond much more effectively to the requirements of our international clients as well as enhance the development of advanced dashboards for business clients.”
