What WOWI does
WOWI Haustechnik GmbH is a Berlin-based technical building services (TGA / Haustechnik) contractor founded in 2004 through the acquisition and renaming of Excedo Vermögensverwaltung GmbH, with continuity of all 25 employees from the insolvent Wolfferts & Wittmer. The company delivers integrated multi-trade building engineering across eleven service lines: heating, cooling/refrigeration, ventilation/room air, sanitary, electrical, measurement-control-regulation (MSR), technical gases and compressed air, renewable energy, plant construction (Anlagenbau), planning/engineering, and service/maintenance. Work is executed by in-house installation crews covering both mechanical and electrical scopes, supported by certified welders for technical gases and in-house MSR programming capability, enabling single-source delivery of complex integrated projects.
The company operates a multi-stream revenue model combining project-based new installation work (typical project size EUR 1–5M) with recurring service, maintenance, and 24/7 emergency contracts, plus renovation and modernization revenue that increasingly targets EU GWP refrigerant compliance and energy-efficiency upgrades. Customers are predominantly commercial — real estate developers and investors (Siemens Energy Real Estate, Consus, CA Immo, NIU Potsdam, AXA), industrial operators (Merck KGaA), hospitality (Hotel Mondial), public sector (Bundesrepublik Deutschland), and heritage/non-profit (Lauder Yeshurun Synagogue) — with private homeowners as a secondary segment. Geographic footprint is concentrated in Berlin and surrounding Brandenburg.
Commercially the firm is run as an employee-owned GmbH with 9 managing shareholders and 49 silent partners among approximately 80 staff, a structure introduced in 2008 and described as distinctive within the German building trades. Operations are anchored by a heritage-listed, self-modernized Kesselhaus headquarters in Berlin-Zehlendorf/Steglitz, DNK sustainability certification (2023), and a certification stack covering public procurement (VOB/A), refrigerant handling, and water management (WHG). A sister company, WOWI Luft- und Klimatechnik GmbH, operates from the same building to scale HVAC specialty work.

WOWI competitors and assessment
Company assessmentBroad incumbents
- BAM Deutschland: German operations of Royal BAM Group, providing construction, civil engineering, and building services across commercial and public sectors. Comparable to WOWI in MEP building services, though BAM Deutschland operates as a much larger general contractor with infrastructure-scale capabilities.
- Hochtief: One of Germany's largest construction groups with significant building services and facility management operations. Comparable to WOWI in serving commercial real estate and infrastructure projects, but operates as a general contractor with much broader scope across construction, PPP, and engineering.
- ENGIE Deutschland: German subsidiary of global energy and facility services group ENGIE. Overlaps with WOWI in building services, HVAC, and energy efficiency, but operates at vastly larger scale with broader portfolio including energy generation, district heating, and infrastructure across Germany.
Direct peers
- ROM Facility Solutions: German facility management and technical building services company serving commercial real estate and industrial clients across multiple sites. Comparable to WOWI in offering integrated technical facility services (TGA) to commercial property managers and developers in the German market.

Directly comparable to WOWI in geographic focus (Berlin) and integrated multi-trade TGA service portfolio serving commercial real estate clients.
- Caverion Deutschland: German operations of Finnish Caverion, providing building solutions and HVAC services across commercial real estate and industrial sectors. Comparable to WOWI in HVAC and refrigeration focus, with similar service contract and project-based model targeting Berlin-area building owners.
- WISAG: Germany's largest family-owned facility services and infrastructure provider with MEP capabilities across aviation, industry, real estate, and energy. Comparable to WOWI in MEP service offering and German-market focus, though operating at significantly larger scale across multiple business segments.

Directly comparable to WOWI in MEP/TGA service portfolio and German commercial customer focus, though operating at much larger scale with multi-country presence.
Emerging players
- Drees & Sommer: German engineering and consulting firm focused on building services, energy efficiency, and sustainability advisory for real estate and infrastructure. Comparable to WOWI in targeting commercial real estate clients and emphasizing sustainability (DNK-aligned), but focused on consulting and planning rather than installation execution.
