What Granlund does

Granlund Oy is a Helsinki-based building services engineering (talotekniikka) consultancy and property software company founded in 1960. The firm designs HVAC, electrical, and automation systems for buildings across healthcare, retail, real estate, data center, education, and industrial sectors, serving both public-sector clients (hospital districts, municipalities) and large enterprises such as Kesko. Engineering services are delivered through approximately 30 offices in Finland plus operations in Sweden, the Netherlands, and the UK, supported by 1,730 personnel as of the 2025 annual report.

The company's software arm centers on Granlund Manager, described as the most-used property management software in Finland, which aggregates building data, maintenance workflows, energy analytics, and increasingly digital twin and IoT sensor inputs. Adjacent products include the RAVA3pro BIM-based condition assessment methodology (being incorporated into the Finnish Construction Act), Pro3 and Timbal (acquired via Derigo in October 2025), and AI-assisted energy optimization tools demonstrated in cases such as Antilooppi.

The business model combines fee-based engineering and project consulting with recurring SaaS and software maintenance revenue from Granlund Manager. ICG's June 2024 investment funded an active acquisition program that added architecture (Tähti-Set), international platform assets (Smits van Burgst in the Netherlands), and software capability (Derigo), while the December 2025 divestiture of Granlund Isännöinti narrowed focus toward higher-margin consulting and software. FY2025 revenue reached €180.7M with €15.9M operating profit and €24.2M EBITDA.

Core offering

Granlund designs, consults on and manages the technical systems in buildings — covering HVAC, electrical, automation, fire safety, lighting, telecom/security, and cleanroom engineering — alongside architectural, structural and construction management services. It complements these consulting services with its Granlund Manager property management software, Pro3 project management software, and Timbal energy/maintenance software, serving the full property lifecycle from design through operations.

Product overview

Granlund's product portfolio centers on Granlund Manager, a comprehensive property management software platform — the most widely used in Finland — with modular add-ons including Huoltokirja (maintenance book), PTS (planned maintenance planning), ESG reporting, Digital Twin (virtual property/IoT), and Granlund Designer (device data management). The portfolio was expanded through the November 2025 acquisition of Derigo Oy, adding Pro3 (project management software) and Timbal (Timbal Pro for renovation/budgeting + Timbal Energia for energy efficiency). Together these products cover the full property lifecycle from construction project management through operations, maintenance, and sustainability reporting.
