What SANS does
SANS GmbH (SANS Gesellschaft für Systeme, Anlagen- und Netzbau mbH) is a German electrical-engineering services company founded in 2008 and headquartered in Bexbach, Saarland. It delivers turnkey electrotechnical projects across four business segments: Leitungs- & Netzbau (cable and network construction for low- and medium-voltage networks up to 110 kV), Anlagenbau (energy supply plant engineering, including transformer stations, switchgear up to 6,000 A, UPS, and standby power), Gebäudetechnik (building electrical services and BUS system automation), and E-Mobility (EV charging stations, wallboxes, charging and load management, and modular storage up to 100 kW plus container storage above 100 kW). The company is led by Managing Director Hans-Peter Forster, with three Prokuristen (Heiko Groß, Jens Otto, Stefan Wein) and an in-house team of engineers, master craftsmen, project and construction managers, and installers.
The company operates from six regional offices across five German federal states — Bexbach (HQ), Karlsruhe, Brühl, Ebermannsdorf, Langen, and Neustadt an der Weinstraße — delivering projects through a single accountable project manager from sales and consulting through planning, manufacturing, installation, commissioning, and recurring maintenance (DGUV V3, DIN VDE 105/0100 T600). It holds ISO 9001:2015 certification, the RAL Gütezeichen Kabelleitungstiefbau, and Handwerkskammer/Berufsgenossenschaft registrations that pre-qualify it for municipal and public-sector tenders. A co-development partnership with SATEMA GmbH supports standardized EV charging solutions, and a broader partner network (BAAB, HN Rohrbau, GFKK, Stiegele) extends capacity in plant construction, building services, municipal lighting, and e-mobility.
SANS generates revenue primarily from project-based electrical construction services (Netzbau/Anlagenbau/Gebäudetechnik) delivered as a turnkey general contractor, with recurring/standing maintenance and inspection contracts (24/7 fault response, DGUV V3, recurring DIN VDE tests, transformer/switchgear maintenance) and hardware sales of EV charging stations, wallboxes, and storage systems providing secondary streams. Pricing is quote-based and project-by-project, with no public price list; customers initiate contact through a structured contact form, callback service, email, or phone, and tenders are submitted directly to the sales department. Customer segments are primarily municipal utilities and regional energy suppliers, data center operators, industrial and commercial customers, e-mobility infrastructure operators, and public-sector clients — all served exclusively within Germany.

SANS product offering
Product offeringCore offering
SANS GmbH delivers turnkey electrical engineering services across four business segments: Leitungs- & Netzbau (cable and network construction), Anlagenbau (energy supply plant engineering), Gebäudetechnik (building technology) and E-Mobility. Engagements cover the full lifecycle — sales/consulting, project planning, manufacturing, installation, commissioning, and lifetime maintenance/service — for medium- and low-voltage networks, transformer stations, switchgear up to 6,000 A, data centers, public lighting, and EV charging infrastructure, executed by an in-house team of engineers, master technicians and installers operating from six regional offices in Germany.
Product overview
SANS GmbH is a single, unified electrical-engineering services company rather than a software platform with modules. Its offering is organized around four business segments — Leitungs- & Netzbau (Cable & Network Construction), Anlagenbau (Plant/Energy Supply Engineering), Gebäudetechnik (Building Technology), and E-Mobility — that are delivered through the same cross-segment service stack of Vertrieb (Sales), Projektplanung (Project Planning), Montage (Installation), and Wartung & Service (Maintenance & Service). The four segments share engineering, installation, and maintenance resources and are coordinated from locations in Bexbach, Karlsruhe, Brühl, Ebermannsdorf, Langen, and Neustadt an der Weinstraße.
