Jan Willem Koudijs, owner of private investigation bureau Alkris, received the first branche related quality mark from Arnoud Bruinsma, chairman of the BPOB, the branch association for private investigators in the Netherlands.

“Well deserved”, according to the chairman, “Mr Koudijs has done a lot for this branch. As co-founder of the association he has made an important contribution to the professionalization of our profession. The quality mark is a clear demonstration to potential customers that they are dealing with an approved professional company. A company that is clearly up to date with the latest industry developments and that can built on a broad national and international network. "And that's an important distinction," according to Bruinsma, "globalization and digitalization of our business requires international cooperation. But also at national level, private investigators see the benefits of working together. The association has got more than 30 members since it was established a little over a year ago.
