Towards more transparent SURF services

In 2020, we launched 1SURF. While all our services - for instance the SURF network, the supercomputer and all joint procurement and tendering processes - continued as usual, we set up a renewed organisation. As a result, we are now delivering a number of service harmonisation projects. What will SURF members see from this?

Operating and collaborating more decisively

SURF has been steering a new course since 2020: in that year we launched 1SURF. Three operating companies that were already working closely together for optimal use of ICT in education and research became one. We did so for a reason: as one organisation, we can operate even more decisively and cooperate more clearly with our members. Thus, together with members, we developed a new SURF Strategy 2022-2027 (PDF).

What can members expect from us?

What can you notice about a more decisive SURF in the near future? The most obvious are probably changes in processes around our services.

This will make it a lot easier for members to find out what we as SURF actually offer, and to purchase those services.
