Projekthaus

What Projekthaus does

Projekthaus GmbH is a German engineering services firm headquartered in Bremen, founded in 1997 and operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the MHC Gruppe, a diversified industrial conglomerate of 13+ entities spanning gas engineering, metering automation, refrigeration, lifting technology, and professional training. The company delivers DVGW-certified expert inspections and assessments (specialist areas III 'GDRM', IV 'Pressure vessels', and VIII 'Biogas and hydrogen processing'), planning and project engineering under DVGW worksheet G 493-1, technical construction drawings, technical plant documentation, plant safety and explosion protection services, operating instructions, and flange calculations. Its primary customers are German energy supply companies (gas utilities, network operators) and industrial firms; a training academy (Bildungsakademie), located in Germersheim with an additional training centre in Arnstadt, sells seminars, e-learnings, and in-house training programs for gas-industry professionals, formalized via a 2024 strategic cooperation with DVGW Berufliche Bildung.

The business model is overwhelmingly professional-services based, with revenue sourced from engineering/inspection projects, recurring training delivery, and documentation retainers; a complementary hardware/parts stream runs through ET-COMP's B2B e-commerce platform (et-comp.de), and group subsidiary RMGS sells its own branded metering products (ECS 2020, EW 3000) and Siemens-aligned automation solutions under a 2026 Silver Solution Partner certification. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The company is sales-led and event-driven, reaching buyers through industry trade shows (Oldenburger Rohrleitungsforum, Kontec for nuclear technology), career fairs, and a presence on LinkedIn/Facebook/Instagram. Projekthaus holds integrated ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, and ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certifications plus DEKRA SGU, BetrSichV qualified-person, DVGW Sachverständiger, and Creditreform CrefoZert credentials — these collectively constitute the firm's primary competitive moat against new entrants in regulated gas-infrastructure inspection work. The group is undertaking a generational leadership transition (effective 1 July 2025) and an active bolt-on M&A programme, having integrated MHC Zugck GmbH and MHC Kostinek GmbH on 1 January 2026 alongside historical acquisitions such as MHC Vitek Engineering (2022), MHC Solutions (2024), and EVS Mönchgesang (2025).

Broad incumbents

• TÜV SÜD Industrie Service: TÜV SÜD is a major German TIC (testing, inspection, certification) provider with industrial services covering pressure equipment, gas systems, and DVGW-aligned inspections. It competes for the same enterprise and municipal inspection mandates Projekthaus targets but operates across a much broader portfolio of industries.
• DEKRA Automobil GmbH: DEKRA is one of Germany's largest TIC firms and actually issues the SGU certification Projekthaus holds. DEKRA competes in industrial safety, gas system inspection, and personnel certification, with deeper brand recognition in German enterprise procurement.
• Bureau Veritas Germany: Bureau Veritas operates an industrial-services practice in Germany covering inspection, certification, and HSE services for energy and industrial clients, overlapping with Projekthaus's gas-infrastructure inspection mandate but at much greater scale.
• TÜV Rheinland Industrie Service: TÜV Rheinland provides industrial inspection and certification services in Germany, including pressure equipment and energy infrastructure. It is a credible alternative for municipal utility and industrial buyers seeking DVGW-equivalent inspection work.

Direct peers

• AFRY (formerly Pöyry) Germany: AFRY is a European engineering and design firm with extensive energy-sector consulting in Germany, covering gas, hydrogen, and district heating infrastructure. It targets similar enterprise and municipal engineering mandates as Projekthaus.
• Ramboll Deutschland: Ramboll is a major engineering consultancy with a strong German energy practice, providing planning, design, and project management for gas, hydrogen, and district-energy infrastructure. It competes directly for the engineering mandates Projekthaus pursues.
