What claim.m GmbH does

claim.m GmbH is a Frankfurt am Main-based specialist consulting firm serving the German construction and real estate industry. Founded in 2023 by Marco Richter and Michal Gamalski, the company delivers contract management, claim management, anti-claim management, and cost management services for construction and real estate projects on both the principal/developer and contractor sides. The firm focuses on complex projects where contractual disputes, additional compensation claims (Nachträge), and cost overruns are material risks, applying expertise in German construction contract law (VOB, BGB). Notable referenced experience includes Terminal 3 of Frankfurt Airport and the European Central Bank headquarters.

The company operates a project-based professional services model delivered by a team of seven personnel, including four project managers and an advisory board member (Guido Beddig) with real estate M&A experience. Services are delivered through a defined five-step methodology covering contract analysis, strategy development, conflict resolution, cost and project control, and finalization with lessons learned. Disclosed operational metrics include 6+ active projects, €500M+ in managed construction volume, and a self-reported 100% customer success rate. Geographic engagement spans Frankfurt am Main, Main-Taunus-Kreis, Neu-Isenburg, and Bedburg, with the company operating from a Berger Straße headquarters and a secondary workspace at Spaces The Docks.

Commercially, claim.m is founder-owned with no disclosed external investment. The go-to-market is sales-led and direct, relying on website inquiry, professional referrals, and the founders' networks within the construction and real estate sector. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, consistent with bespoke professional services engagements. The company does not offer a technology product, API, or software platform — its core "technology" is specialized domain expertise in construction contract law and project-level claim advisory.
