About
Tef has a background in Industrial engineering and management at the University of Groningen. During his master's, he did a specialisation in Simulations and a full time internship at an ambulance service in the Netherlands. A few years later he relocated to the UK to join the Omda Readiness team, formerly known as Optima. At Omda, Tef has worked for many years with Predict, which is Omda's dedicated discrete event simulation solution. Predict enables modelling the dispatch and vehicle operations of Emergency Medical Services (EMS) systems. Tef worked closely with many EMS organisations, not only in the UK but across the world. He has gained a lot of knowledge and experience in typical EMS challenges and how simulation scenario modelling can be used as an effective tool to find high-quality answers to support better decision-making. In recent years, Tef has taken the lead in the Omda Readiness product development and business development. As of 2025, Tef is managing the global operations of the Omda Readiness team across the teams in New Zealand, Europe, and the United States of America.
