Rob studied architecture at the HTS in The Hague and from that moment on has been interested in the possibilities of computerisation and digitisation. He uses his analytical ability to apply calculation models to problems. If there are none or unclear frameworks for an issue, he will start there. He does not hesitate to point out unrealistic budgets to the client and he identifies risks at an early stage, so that there is sufficient time to anticipate them. Identifying bottlenecks and coming up with solutions are inextricably linked.

He has a background of more than 15 years as a construction cost consultant at a medium-sized architectural firm and a construction cost consultancy, and has gained a lot of experience with school construction, care institutions and large housing projects. Rob has been working at IGG since 2013. He is particularly interested in lifecycle costs, as these can be strongly influenced during the initiation and design phase. After all, the essential choices are made here in terms of MEP, materials, components, etc.

Sustainability is therefore logically an extension of the areas of interest, because sustainable use of materials can help to limit the lifecycle costs.

Sietse started his architectural career at LTS Architecture at the former Willem Blaeu in Alkmaar. After completing LTS Architecture, Sietse continued his school career at Horizon College in Alkmaar. There he successfully completed primary and secondary carpentry training.

After a short trip to the construction site (1999), Sietse discovered that his interest is in calculating, preparing and supervising construction projects. After completing the Calculator / Work Planner course at Horizon College in Alkmaar, he came into contact with the budgeting and calculation of construction projects in civil and utility construction. To broaden his knowledge in the field of architecture and business economics, he followed a B&U calculation course at BOB training and Small Business and Retail Management at INholland in Haarlem.

From 1999 to 2012 and from 2016 to 2019, Sietse worked as a calculator / planner, project manager and manager at various medium-sized contractors in North-Holland.

In this way he can also contribute to making complex construction and technical issues practical.

Steven is an all-round project leader who has supervised construction and real estate related projects for both clients and contractors. In recent years he has specialised in tenders, where he has sat on both sides of the table.

In the role of tender manager or consultant, he has since been involved in more than 80 tenders. His Architectural (HTS) and Public Administration (University) background comes in handy here.

For Steven, a tender is never a goal in itself, but always a means to make projects a success. After all, basically a tender is nothing more than asking the market a question and ensuring that a good answer is given. Preferably several, because then there is something to choose from. By not only organising the tendering procedure, but also formulating the request correctly, the chance of a correct answer considerably increases. A tender forms the basis for future cooperation.

Steven has been working at IGG since 2016 and is always closely involved in his projects, where the interests of the client always come first.

After the HTS in Rotterdam, Sui Ming started at Randstad Polytechniek (technical employment agency) as a structural draftsman or employee. He has worked here on various residential and non-residential construction projects, for architects and engineering firms, municipalities and construction companies.

From 1996 to 1998, he worked for Arcadis Bouwinfra as the first architectural draftsman for the development of De Resident project between Central Station and The Hague Municipality. Sui Ming had previously indicated that he wanted to gain cost knowledge from the cost department, but unfortunately that was not possible at the time.

In October 1998 he started as a calculator at Ingenieursbureau Multical. There he drew up the cost estimates for various types of construction projects. He supports the Specifications Department with surveying specifications. After obtaining his diploma of the basic training Construction Cost Expert at the Hague University of Applied Sciences in 2005, he started growing as a construction cost consultant, where he can run projects independently.
