Our experts provide tailored solutions for both upgrading existing test facilities to meet capacity challenges and developing greenfield testing centers. We offer innovative modular testbeds in a containerized format as an alternative to traditional building methods. This approach accelerates project timelines, enhances planning quality, and ensures budget accuracy. Additionally, our advanced facility energy management solutions optimize energy consumption, lower operational costs, and contribute to sustainable testing environments.

Based on stakeholder input and market analysis, our experienced project team defines the essential functional elements of a project. We engage in continuous discussions with our customers to establish a shared under-standing of the project scope, ensuring alignment with technical and regulatory requirements. This foundation allows us to develop a compre-hensive concept and conduct a feasibility study, including compliance with governmental regulations and coordination with local authorities.
Detailed Design and Tender Specifications
Once the detailed design is finalized, we prepare tender specifications for potential suppliers. Our structured approach ensures that all technical and commercial requirements are clearly defined to prevent misunderstandings and streamline the procurement process.

Procurement Phase and Contract Management
During the procurement phase, we prepare commercial contract conditions and coordinate agreements with subcontractors or support our customers in doing so. Our focus is on securing the most suitable lab infrastructure and testing equipment at competitive conditions.
Execution Phase and Project Handover
Throughout the execution phase, we collaborate closely with customers, subcontractors, and the on-site team to ensure seamless project implementation. The project concludes with a structured handover, including all relevant documentation, ensuring a fully operational and future-proof test facility.
