Consultancy Services for the Transport Sector
NTU has just signed another EIB contract for Monitoring and Advisory for the Road Sector in Hungary. Road sector consultancy tasks are among our absolute core-competences, and we currently have a lot of work within this sector. For NTU’s managing director, Lars Bentzen, the continuous cooperation with EIB is a ratification of NTU’s work:
“We are very honored that EIB has chosen us once again, and we consider this to be a direct outcome of our thorough implementation of every project. By now, clients have understood that they can trust our services.”
Project appraisal tasks
This new EIB contract runs for 3 years, and the project tasks, which are included under this framework agreement, will consist mainly of project appraisal tasks. For this, NTU is expected to:
