Effective immediately, Drees & Sommer SE, with its headquarters in Stuttgart, has acquired 100% of the shares in Hamburg-based LV Baumanagement AG. As of March 31, close to 40 new colleagues will strengthen its expertise in civil and structural engineering.
LV Baumanagement AG (LVB AG), already highly regarded in Northern Germany, is a leading construction management company that supports and is responsible for complex construction projects through its team of experts. With this new subsidiary, Drees & Sommer is expanding its range of services to include civil engineering. LVB AG strengthens Drees & Sommer with innovative approaches, especially in the areas of sustainability and digitalization.
Together, its experts fulfill Drees & Sommer’s 360-degree promise for services in real estate, industrial facilities, and infrastructure expansion in context of the energy transition. Its expertise includes, for example, tendering and awarding structural engineering services, the preparation of expert opinions, and planning and construction management in civil engineering. Subsoil surveys, contaminated site, and pollutant investigation as well as disposal management, consulting expertise in demolition and water law, excavation planning and management, and services related to flood protection and geothermal energy further expand the range of services. The existing and new customers at both firms thus benefit from a comprehensive service portfolio for construction and infrastructure projects.
LVB AG will continue to develop its portfolio under the leadership of the current managing directors under the name “LV Baumanagement – Part of Drees & Sommer.” In the medium term, all regional employees will operate together out of a single location in Hamburg. Both companies look forward to the merger and the bundled knowledge.
