They likely offer at least some of:

* typical deployments

* training/consulting

* compliance with Ditch regulations

* shared infrastructure for custom builds, and CVEs

The first, second and fourth items can be provided for NixOS.

As for the third item - that's not answering my question, it's a homunculus answer: What could the Netherlands have regulated that requires making changes to NixOS? Which NixOS maintainers themselves could not oblige?

    The Dutch government provides baseline standards: https://www.bio-overheid.nl/bio2/bio-producten/baseline-info...

    I'm sure NixOS can provide those, but rather than each department figure out how to do that, organisations try to centralize figuring this out: which packages and configuration satisfies the requirements.

    One of the items discusses MFA. Organisations will want to standardise on exactly which MFA devices they provide and support.
