What Aitp does

Aitp GmbH is a privately held German general planning firm (Generalplaner) founded in 2019 in Chemnitz, operating across five German locations (Chemnitz, Dresden, Munich, Erfurt, Aalen) with 160+ employees and two wholly-owned subsidiary vehicles (aitp Dresden GmbH, aitp München GmbH). The firm delivers full-scope planning services for technically demanding industrial construction projects, organized around four integrated business divisions: Hochbau (building construction), Tragwerksplanung (structural engineering), Tiefbau (civil engineering and infrastructure), and Technische Gebäudeausrüstung (mechanical and electrical systems, including clean rooms and regenerative energy). All disciplines are delivered under one roof using 3D planning and BIM methodology, with specialized expertise in clean-room design for pharmaceutical and microelectronics sectors plus 3D laser scanning and drone-based surveying.

The firm operates a sales-led B2B go-to-market targeting blue-chip industrial clients, with a publicly visible roster spanning automotive (Porsche, Rolls-Royce, Daimler), optics (Carl Zeiss), pharmaceutical and healthcare (Roche, Sanofi, Boehringer Ingelheim, Bayer, Merz Pharma), materials (Novelis), and construction (Geiger). Engagements follow the German HOAI fee structure across all nine service phases, producing multi-year, project-based professional services revenue contracts anchored to complex, hard-to-replan industrial facilities. The company maintains co-located regional offices near key customer sites (Carl Zeiss in Aalen, Siemens in Erfurt) as a relationship-driven expansion strategy.

The business model is professional services: project-based fees under HOAI for full-lifecycle planning from conceptual design through turnkey handover. The firm holds no disclosed external institutional capital and is led by two Geschäftsführer, Thomas Voigtländer and Josef Geiger. Talent is sourced through formal dual-university partnerships (Berufsakademie Sachsen, International University) and apprenticeship programs. Marketing is limited to a corporate website (aitp.de), LinkedIn, Instagram, and a dedicated careers section — distribution is relationship- and referral-based rather than through productized channels.
