PROPROJEKT planning management & project consulting

What PROPROJEKT planning management & project consulting does

PROPROJEKT Planungsmanagement & Projektberatung GmbH is a privately held German project management and consulting firm founded in 1996 and headquartered in Frankfurt am Main, with additional offices in Berlin and Lausanne, Switzerland. The firm delivers professional consulting services across project steering (Projektsteuerung following AHO standards), feasibility studies and process management, public procurement/tender management (VgV and VOB/A), sustainability and human rights concept development, bid book preparation for international sports events, urban development planning, and programme management for multi-sport events. Its client base is concentrated in the German public sector and international sports ecosystem, including the City of Frankfurt, the German Federal Ministry for Housing, Urban Development and Building (BMWSB), the Deutscher Fußball-Bund (DFB), Deutsche Sport Marketing, ALBA BERLIN, Sportpark Stadion Frankfurt GmbH, the Rhine-Ruhr 2025 FISU Games organising committee, and multi-federation bid consortiums such as the BNG2027 group for the FIFA Women's World Cup 2027.

The firm operates a sales-led, relationship-driven go-to-market model in which engagements are acquired through competitive public tendering and long-term client relationships rather than digital or channel-based distribution. Revenue derives from professional services fees on a project basis, with no publicly disclosed pricing. Ownership is concentrated: Stefan Klos serves as Managing Partner and sole shareholder (geschäftsführender Gesellschafter), with Immanuel Geis and Wiebke Balcke as authorised signatories (Prokuristen) and Elina Keim on the management board; the team comprises approximately 24 professionals across architecture, civil engineering, urban planning, geography, sports management, and project management disciplines.

The business has accumulated three decades of brand equity, reporting over 85% client retention and over 90% customer satisfaction (40/44 average rating) across its customer base of 51 surveyed clients. There is no external institutional investment, no funding rounds, no subsidiaries, and no parent company. Recent operational priorities include expansion of sustainability advisory (carbon footprint tracking since 2022), governance modernisation via a Youth Council established in 2024, and continued pursuit of high-profile sports event bids and major urban development commissions such as the Multifunktionsarena P9 in Frankfurt and the Zanders-Areal in Bergisch Gladbach.
