Strategic drone advice for complex issues

Independent advice

When drone issues become complex from a governance, organizational or legal perspective

Not every drone issue revolves around permitting. We are brought in when:

  • Governance decision-making needs to be substantiated.
  • An organization wants to professionalize or reposition its use of drones.
  • A tender or Requirements Specification needs to be drawn up.
  • A policy report or research document needs to be written.
  • CE certification of drones needs to be supported.
  • Incidents need to be assessed in substantive terms.
  • A legal dispute involves drone regulations or airspace.
  • New developments such as U-space or drone detection need to be interpreted.

In these projects, we work at the intersection of regulations, technology, supervision and organization.

Advisory reports

Among other things, we wrote:

  • A report for the Port of Rotterdam Authority on operating in the Specific category within the port area
  • A Requirements Specification for ILT Aerosensing for the purpose of a tender
  • An inventory of drone detection resources for Rijkswaterstaat
  • An advisory report on U-space for the ministry
  • An analysis of State Operators in the Netherlands

In addition:

  • We guided the police drone team in repositioning itself within the organization.
  • We assessed incidents and rewrote parts of operational manuals.
  • We advised organizations on the strategic choice between in-house operations and outsourcing.
  • We reviewed drone use within a water authority and advised management.
  • We are providing support in a legal dispute involving drone regulations and airspace interpretation.

These projects differ greatly in content, but have one thing in common: they require independent, substantive direction.

Our role

In issues of this kind, we act as an independent substantive adviser.

We:

  • Analyze regulations and translate them into administrative and legal implications.
  • Connect technology with oversight, liability and governance.
  • Substantiate strategic choices with facts and risk assessment.
  • Write or rewrite policy and advisory reports.
  • Support the repositioning of drone teams within organizations.
  • Guide decision-making when drone use is politically, legally or reputationally sensitive.

Our role is independent and focused on substantive interpretation and direction.

Who we work for

  • government authorities and regulators
  • knowledge institutions
  • companies with increased safety or compliance responsibilities
  • organizations that use drones in regulated or public environments

What our clients say

Nico de Kruijter
“Droneconsultancy heeft voor ons een exploitatievergunning én een ontheffing om buiten de UDP te mogen vliegen verzorgd, in een traject waar een concollega dronebedrijf niet uit kwam.”

Fantastisch dat zij dit complexe traject wilden overnemen. Het proces is vervolgens op zeer vakkundige, accurate en professionele wijze opgepakt. Alles werd helder gecommuniceerd en binnen een verrassend korte doorlooptijd succesvol afgerond. Absoluut een aanrader voor iedereen die tegen complexe dronewetgeving aanloopt.
