ICP

What ICP does

ICP Ingenieure GmbH is a German engineering consulting firm headquartered in Rodenbach, founded in 1992, that delivers geotechnical, hydrogeological, and environmental engineering services to construction companies, municipalities, and industrial clients. Its core offerings span soil investigations (Baugrunduntersuchungen), engineering geology, hydrogeology, geothermal energy planning, contaminated-site assessment (Altlasten), building pollutant registers (Gebäudeschadstoffkataster), construction monitoring (Überwachungen including vertical inclinometer measurements), and in-house soil mechanics laboratory testing conducted to DIN and EN standards. The firm operates three offices in Rhineland-Palatinate (Rodenbach, Bitburg, Bad Bergzabern) and supports approximately 500 projects annually with a team of around 30 employees.

The business model is project-based professional services revenue, with quote-driven, multi-year contracts and no standardized public pricing. ICP's go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting building owners, architects, municipalities, industrial firms, and project developers, with lead generation via direct outreach, website contact forms, professional referrals, and content marketing (blog articles, downloadable technical resources). Delivery relies on registered, certified expertise: Chamber of Engineers registration for groundwater, contaminated sites, and hydrogeology; TRGS 519/524 contaminated-site certifications; and BDG Consulting Geoscientist credentials held by Managing Directors Frank Neumann and Oliver Semmelsberger.

Since 2022, ICP has operated as part of the M&P Group (M&P-Gruppe), a network of specialized engineering firms, and in 2025 joined the SIERA Alliance, a platform focused on sustainable infrastructure and brownfield revitalization across Europe. The firm has no disclosed software, SaaS, or AI/ML products, no funding rounds, no acquisitions, and no public listing; revenue is not publicly disclosed. Operating geographies are confined to Germany, with potential cross-border reach signaled by Neumann's Luxembourg Consulting Engineer registration and the firm's French-language website.

Broad incumbents

• WSP in Germany: WSP is a global engineering consultancy with significant German operations (including through the Golder acquisition). It competes with ICP on geotechnical, environmental, and infrastructure projects, offering multidisciplinary capabilities far beyond ICP's specialized scope.
• Arcadis Germany: Arcadis is a global design and engineering consultancy with a strong German presence. It offers geotechnical, environmental, and infrastructure consulting services that overlap with ICP's portfolio, but at substantially larger scale and with broader geographic and disciplinary coverage.
• Ramboll Germany: Ramboll is a major European engineering, environmental, and consulting firm with German operations. It provides overlapping services in contaminated site assessment, geotechnical engineering, and sustainable infrastructure, but serves a much larger client base across multiple countries.
• CDM Smith: CDM Smith is a global engineering and construction firm with environmental and geotechnical capabilities relevant to ICP's offerings. It competes on large German infrastructure and environmental projects but operates at much greater scale across multiple geographies.

Direct peers

• BoSS Consult GmbH: BoSS Consult is a German consulting firm focused on geotechnical engineering, foundation design, and environmental services. It is comparable to ICP in service mix, customer base (municipalities, developers, construction companies), and regional operating model.
• GICON Großmann Ingenieur Consult GmbH: GICON is a German engineering consultancy offering geotechnical, environmental, and renewable energy services. It overlaps directly with ICP on environmental site assessment, geotechnical engineering, and energy infrastructure planning in the German market.
• HPC AG: HPC AG is a Germany-based engineering firm specializing in geotechnical, environmental, and hydrogeological consulting. It directly competes with ICP on soil investigations, contaminated site assessments, and remediation planning for construction and infrastructure projects in Germany.
• Fugro Germany: Fugro is a Netherlands-based global leader in geotechnical and subsurface investigation services. It offers geophysical surveys, geotechnical site characterization, and monitoring services that directly overlap with ICP's engineering geology and geophysics work, though at much larger international scale.
• BGU Ingenieure (Büro für Geotechnik und Umwelt): BGU Ingenieure is a German consulting firm specializing in geotechnics and environmental engineering, with services covering soil mechanics, foundation engineering, and contaminated site assessment. It is comparable to ICP in service scope, regional focus, and customer base in the German Mittelstand segment.

Regional players

• GEOCONSULT Ruppert GmbH: GEOCONSULT Ruppert is a German geotechnical and environmental engineering firm based in Bavaria. It is comparable to ICP in core service offerings (soil investigation, hydrogeology, contaminated sites) but operates primarily in southern Germany rather than ICP's Rhineland-Palatinate focus.
