What Hæhre Entreprenør does

Hæhre Entreprenør AS is a Norwegian infrastructure construction contractor founded in 1974 and headquartered in Billingstad (Sandvika), Norway. The company is a wholly owned subsidiary of AKH Gruppen (operating as Infra Group AS, formerly HI Entreprenører) and employs over 1,150 people across offices in Billingstad, Bergen and project sites spanning Northern, Central and Southern Norway. Hæhre delivers large-scale civil engineering works across six core service lines: roads, railways, hydroelectric power, tunnels, site development, and bridges and concrete structures — including signature projects such as the NOK 5.6 billion E6 Kvithammar-Åsen highway, the E39 Mandal-Blørstad motorway, the KSÅ-3 Furnesbakken-Stange railway, and Hæhre's 55% share (NOK 622 million) of the E15 Kvitsøy tunnel on the Rogfast subsea crossing.

The company's technology stack combines construction execution (70% self-production on flagship projects) with a digital backbone spanning Landax project management, Ditio and Simployer for workforce and project efficiency, Effera Maskinførerverifikasjon (an automated machine-operator verification system co-developed with Effera), CoBuilder Collaborate for chemical/substance compliance, and a centralized digital deviation reporting system. Hæhre is the first Norwegian contractor re-certified under ISO 37001 (Anti-Corruption) and ISO 39001 (Road Traffic Safety) and has achieved BREEAM Infrastructure Excellent on multiple projects.

Hæhre generates revenue almost exclusively through fixed-price public infrastructure contracts won via competitive tendering with Norwegian state-owned clients — primarily Nye Veier AS, Bane NOR SF, Statens vegvesen and Statkraft — supplemented by joint-venture structures with Risa, PNC Norge, Isachsen and Contur on the largest projects. Contract values typically range from NOK 1 billion to NOK 6 billion per project over multi-year horizons, with revenue recognized over the construction period through milestone-based progress billings. Specialized subsidiaries include Hæhre Arctic AS (Svalbard and Arctic operations) and the integrated K. Hjelmeland department (dam plastering for the hydroelectric sector).
