Background of the assignment

The Knowledge and Exploitation Center Official Government Publications (KOOP) is responsible for the daily publication of government information in the Netherlands. With our publication services, we enable the entire Dutch government to publish official government information. These can be found on the portal officielebekendmakingen.nl. Currently, a project team/scrum team is working to rebuild and secure the systems for Official Publications for the next 10 years.

Within the mentioned scrum team, there is a need for a business analyst who gathers requirements and translates them into epics, features, and buildable user stories and specifications for development within the Scrum team. KOOP uses the SAFe methodology; we assume the business analyst is familiar with this and adheres to it. KOOP wants to implement improvements to elevate both the quality of the software and the quality of the development process to a higher level. By using the Agile development methodology, KOOP wants to fulfill an important prerequisite for this.

Additional Information

When you, as a supplier, offer a professional to us and they are placed, we will need information from you as a contracting party, including regarding the Chain Liability (Wet keten- en inlenersaansprakelijkheid - WKA). The 'WKA' aims to prevent abuse in the remittance of payroll taxes at all links in the chain; from supplier to client. We cover these risks for our clients through a blocked account, the G-account. This is an account to which a portion of the invoice amount is deposited and from which you can pay payroll taxes and VAT to the Tax Authorities.

The percentage to be deposited depends on whether you have SNA certification (NEN-4400-1 or NEN-4400-2) and whether your company is established in the Netherlands or abroad. You can apply for the G-account from the Tax Authorities. If you cannot obtain a G-account (and you can provide proof from the Tax Authorities for this), you also have the option to provide an accountant's statement (assurance report regarding personnel lending) every quarter. In this, a certified accountant (AA or RA) will issue a statement about the accuracy, completeness, and timeliness of the remittances.

Please note that the costs for this statement are at your own expense.
