Ambrosia

What Ambrosia does

Ambrosia FM Consulting & Services GmbH is a privately held German professional services firm founded in 2005 and headquartered in Bad Oeynhausen (relocating to Löhne on 01.07.2026). The company operates two principal divisions — ambrosia consulting (technical and IT-near facility management consulting across the property lifecycle) and ambrosia services (on-site testing and data capture) — supplemented by the sub-brands ambrosia building, ambrosia compliance, ambrosia software, and ambrosia academy.

The core service offering is regulatory-compliant electrical testing (DGUV V3/V4, BetrSichV, VDE standards) of portable equipment, fixed installations, charging infrastructure, PV systems, machines, and explosion-protection zones, delivered exclusively by "befähigte Personen" (qualified persons) under TRBS using externally calibrated measurement equipment. The second pillar is building data capture — both technical (TGA) and geometric — performed via the proprietary "mera" mobile CAFM application with offline capability and replication for large field teams, output aligned to DIN 276+/KGR 400, VDMA 24186, and CAFM Connect standards and delivered into client CAFM systems (pitCUP, RIBIMS, INCATEC, Planon, HSD, EBCsoft) or through the ambrosia Cloud for clients without their own CAFM.

The company sells on a quote-based, multi-year contract basis through direct enterprise field sales to large corporates, municipalities, healthcare providers, industrial manufacturers, and data center operators across Germany (claimed 500+ customers). The brand positions itself as a qualitative German market leader for testing and FM data capture. No external funding, M&A, or institutional ownership has been disclosed; ownership sits with managing partner Jan Schipper and authorized representative Sandra Göke.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves7 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• DEKRA: Global testing, inspection and certification giant with strong German presence across electrical safety and industrial inspection. Overlaps with ambrosia's Prüfdienstleistungen in der Elektrotechnik, but DEKRA operates across many more verticals and product categories at vastly greater scale.
• Gegenbauer: Berlin-based integrated FM provider with technical, infrastructural and commercial building services across Germany. Comparable to ambrosia in the German FM services market but offers a much broader portfolio including cleaning and security.
• Apleona: One of Germany's largest facility-management service providers, with integrated technical building services, energy management and compliance offerings. Comparable to ambrosia as an FM services competitor but at corporate-scale, with the ability to bundle compliance testing into total FM contracts.
• TÜV Rheinland: One of Germany's largest TIC providers, active in industrial testing, electrical safety, and building/FM-related inspections. Compares to ambrosia's Prüfdienstleistungen and FM advisory work, but with a broader industry and international footprint.
• SGS Germany: Global testing, inspection and certification company with significant German TIC operations covering industrial and electrical equipment testing. Overlaps with ambrosia's Prüfservice but operates globally and across diverse industrial testing categories.
• Hochtief Facility Management: Subsidiary of Hochtief offering technical and infrastructural facility management in Germany, including building-services engineering and compliance-related tasks. Comparable to ambrosia's FM services but on a national/international scale.
• TÜV Süd: Germany-headquartered testing, inspection and certification group offering electrical-equipment testing, facility safety assessments and certification services. Directly comparable to ambrosia's DGUV V3 and BetrSichV offerings but at much larger scale and global footprint.
• Wisag: Major German integrated FM and building-services group covering technical facility management, building services and industrial maintenance. Comparable to ambrosia's TGA data-capture and FM advisory services, but operating nationally across full-service contracts.

Emerging players

• Planon: International CAFM/IWMS software vendor. Comparable to ambrosia's digital CAFM integration and CAFM Connect-oriented data-capture positioning as a software-led approach to the same FM digitalization problem ambrosia serves operationally.
• Spacewell: Provider of CAFM and integrated workplace management software (formerly iTWO facility/IFM), with strong DACH presence. Comparable to ambrosia's ambrosia Cloud and CAFM-Datenservice solutions, representing a software-led alternative in the same German FM digitalization segment.
