Newblend manages Apple devices the way you expect in a business environment: centrally rolled out, secured, and alongside your existing Microsoft 365 environment. Not a consumer service, but management with logging, policy and a point of contact.
Mac, iPad and iPhone under management: updates, policy, support and replacement. One contract for the whole fleet.
Through Apple Business Manager a new device comes out of the box fully configured. The employee signs in and works.
Migration per team or organisation-wide, with a plan for files, licences and the applications that need to move.
Entra ID, Teams, SharePoint and Outlook work on the Mac just as on Windows. One identity, one security policy.
Diagnosis, repair and loan devices, so a broken device does not cost a day of productivity.
Disk encryption, MDM policy, patch management and logging — the Apple fleet falls under the same duty of care as the rest.
We answer the phone for your company, help your customers and email on your behalf — entirely under your name. Temporarily during leave, sickness or peak periods, or structurally as permanent staffing of your servicedesk.
Taking, resolving and escalating requests. We work in your ticketing system and according to your work instructions.
To the end customer we are an employee of your organisation. Phone, email, ticket, chat and Teams, in Dutch and English.
Set out in the contract: we do not approach or take over our clients' end customers.
An AI pilot that gets stuck in demos delivers nothing. Newblend starts with the process: which step takes too much time, which systems are involved, and what an agent may decide on its own. Then we build it, connect it to your existing systems and train your colleagues.
An AI agent is software that carries out a task on its own: it receives an instruction, consults systems, makes a decision within predefined rules and performs an action — without a person directing every step.
We map where AI adds value in your organisation and where it creates risk. Including a GDPR and AI Act review.

Read about AI adoption and trainingNewblend places organisations in three levels. The AI scan determines where you stand and what the next sensible step is.
| Level | What you recognise | Next step |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Exploring | Colleagues use separate AI tools on their own initiative. No policy, no visibility of what data leaves. | Set up an AI usage policy and a secure work environment. |
| 2. Applying | AI is in the standard tools, for example Microsoft Copilot. Usage varies strongly per department. | Steer adoption and build the first agent on a defined process. |
| 3. Automated | Agents run in production, connected to business systems, with logging and ownership. | Scale up to more processes and formalise governance. |
According to the Dutch government, the Cybersecurity Act, the Dutch transposition of the European NIS2 directive, came into force on 15 August 2026 and affects around 8,000 organisations in 18 sectors. The law imposes a duty of care and a reporting obligation, and makes directors personally accountable.
If it does not apply to you, you will probably still get NIS2 through your clients: supply chain responsibility means they will set requirements for their suppliers.
An essential entity is an organisation in a highly critical sector that falls under the strictest NIS2 supervision regime, with proactive checks by the supervisor.
The law is in force. The duty of care and reporting obligation apply now. Request the NIS2 check to see what applies to your organisation.
Seven questions. You know straight away whether the duty of care applies to you.
| Essential entity | Important entity | |
|---|---|---|
| Industries | Highly critical sectors, such as energy, drinking water, digital infrastructure and healthcare | Other critical sectors, such as postal services, waste management, food and digital providers |
| Supervision | Proactive: checks even without cause | Reactive: checks after an incident or signal |
| Duty of care | Same measures as important entities | Same measures as essential entities |
| Reporting obligation | First notification within 24 hours of detection | First notification within 24 hours of detection |
More explanation is on the page about NIS2 and the Cybersecurity Act, including the difference with the Belgian transposition via the Centre for Cybersecurity Belgium. If you first want to know objectively where you stand, we carry out an independent IT audit against NIS2, ISO 27001 or NEN 7510.
A manufacturer with machines on the network has different requirements from a school or a healthcare institution. Newblend works for these sectors in the Netherlands and Belgium.
Fixed monthly fees per workplace and reasoned advice on every investment. No surprises on the invoice.
Scale up and down as your organisation changes, without having to hire people yourself.
We monitor proactively and resolve issues before they affect you. You keep time for your own work.
Our engineers implement it themselves. That is why we know your environment down to the configuration.
A workplace that simply works, with support that answers and already knows the context.
From Microsoft 365 to AI agents: we test it ourselves first and only then advise.
| Doing it yourself | Outsourcing to Newblend | |
|---|---|---|
| Knowledge | Dependent on one or two internal people | A team with network, cloud, security and AI specialists |
| Availability | Holidays and sickness are a risk | Continuity set out in a service agreement |
| Costs | Fixed payroll costs, regardless of demand | Variable: you pay for what you use |
| Compliance | Working out yourself what NIS2 and ISO 27001 require | ISO 27001 implementation and audits |
Newblend is led by a team of specialists: network and infrastructure engineers, cloud and Microsoft 365 administrators, Apple specialists, security engineers and AI developers. Whoever sets up your environment is also the person you get on the phone.
Customers are not a number to us. You have a fixed point of contact who knows your organisation, and behind that contact is the team that built your environment. Read more about Newblend or see which partners we work with.
Four pillars, one point of contact, agreed arrangements. This is how the services work in practice.
The most frequently asked question about NIS2 is also the simplest: does it apply to me? The answer depends on your sector, your size and your position in the supply chain.
Read how to determine whether NIS2 applies to youMost AI projects that fail, fail on the choice of starting point. Not on the technology, but on the process you start with.
