What HS Group does

HS Group operates in the market under the legal name Multitec Engenharia e Automação and the trade name MULTITEC. It is a privately held Brazilian engineering consultancy headquartered in Guaratinguetá, São Paulo, with additional offices in São José dos Campos, São Paulo, São Bernardo do Campo, Curitiba, and Camaçari. The firm delivers full-lifecycle industrial engineering services across conception, design, procurement, construction management, and operational excellence consulting, executing under EPCM, FEED, and E contract types for enterprise clients in chemicals, petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, food, automotive, pulp and paper, mining, oil and gas, infrastructure, ceramics and glass, renewables, and general manufacturing.

The service portfolio comprises four modules: Engenharia de Projetos (multidisciplinary design across process, automation, robotics, electrical, mechanical, piping, civil, and IT disciplines, supported by 3D/4D modeling and a proprietary cost estimation methodology); Gerenciamento de Projetos e Construção (project and construction management aligned to PMBoK/PMI methodology covering scope, risk, stakeholder, procurement, safety, environment, and health); Gerenciamento de Suprimentos (procurement management from supplier qualification through inspection and logistics); and Excelência Operacional (operational excellence consulting). Execution is governed by an Integrated Management System (SGI) certified under NBR ISO 9001:2008, NBR ISO 14001:2004, and OHSAS 18001:2007, and is supported by a documented Information Protection Framework covering confidentiality, cryptography, storage, and access control.

The business model is professional services revenue generated through project-based, multi-year consultancy contracts at undisclosed, quote-based pricing. Go-to-market is consultative enterprise field sales, deliberately focused on a limited number of clients and sustained through long-term relationships based on ethics, trust, and integrity. Customer logos include BASF, Petrobras, Suzano, Votorantim, Aracruz, PPG, Hexion, Corn, Itambé, Pilkington, Corbion/Purac, and Phillipine, with documented project investments ranging from 5 to 80 MioUS$. Distribution is direct to enterprise clients with no intermediary channels; marketing is driven by reputation, portfolio, certifications, and referrals rather than digital channels.
