(Press release Royal Schiphol Group:) Schiphol, the Netherlands, 15 August 2022 – Schiphol has awarded the definitive contract for the completion of its A Pier to BAM Bouw en Techniek. During the tendering procedure, BAM Bouw en Techniek convincingly demonstrated that it had the capacity in house to take on this contract. The focus of the tendering procedure was on cooperation within an integrated construction team and stakeholder management.
BAM will start work in September. During the first phase of the project, Schiphol and BAM will agree a schedule and determine the expected costs for completion of the pier.
