Bos acquires ConnectinQ BOS Woodworking Factory Solutions has acquired ConnectinQ Software and ConnectinQ, two companies based in Harlingen specializing in software solutions and engineering for prefabricated timber frame construction, respectively. With this acquisition, BOS expands its offering from machinery to the software that controls the entire production process, as well as the underlying engineering expertise. ConnectinQ Software develops software for prefabricated timber frame construction. The Produuz.it platform provides digital control for the factories and connects BIM models, work preparation, production, and the shop floor in a single environment. This ensures that the entire process from BIM drawing to production-ready control of CNC machines is completely paperless. Additionally, ConnectinQ Software is working on Prefabmatrix, a new development that enables automated calculations, schedule creation, order management, post-calculation, and financial administration based on IFC models. ConnectinQ is a drafting firm with extensive engineering knowledge of timber frame construction. With the combination of knowledge of the machines, the product, and its development, BOS expects to be able to support its customers even better in the future. The acquisition aligns with BOS's strategy to offer customers total solutions rather than individual components. While BOS has been supplying the machines customers use for production for years through Bos Machines and H&M Machines, ConnectinQ adds the software that controls that process. This allows the group to support the entire chain from drawing to production. ConnectinQ and H&M Machines are already collaborating on several projects. "We see in practice that together we can mean more to customers, and customers are enthusiastic about that," says Teus Jan de Jong, CEO of the BOS Group. "This acquisition is the logical next step. We all believe in the long term, and that is also evident in how we have structured things." With the acquisition, the group's shareholder structure has been adjusted. In addition to strategic partner Anders Invest, Tom Eijkenaar (Managing Director of ConnectinQ), Jan Willem Dijkstra (Managing Director of H&M Machines), and Teus Jan de Jong (CEO of the BOS Group) are acquiring a stake in the group. With this, BOS ensures strategic cohesion and long-term commitment. Founder Tom Eijkenaar will remain associated with ConnectinQ and continue to expand the company within the group. About ConnectinQ Based in Harlingen, ConnectinQ develops custom software for prefabricated timber frame construction. A defining characteristic of the company is that the team masters both IT and woodworking, a combination rare in the sector. The Prefabmatrix product links design, work preparation, production, and administration in a single environment. About BOS Woodworking Factory Solutions BOS Woodworking Factory Solutions supplies machines and solutions for the woodworking industry, with Bos Machines and H&M Machines as parts of the group.
