LINCONA AB

What LINCONA AB does

Lincona AB is a privately held Swedish construction engineering consultancy headquartered in Uddevalla, with operations extending into Gothenburg. Founded in 1999, the firm offers structural engineering (konstruktion), construction documentation, design engineering (projektering), control responsibility (kontrollansvarig/KA), project management, construction management, building inspection, and BAS-P work environment coordination services. Its technical stack relies on industry-standard tools — FEM analysis, AutoCAD, and Revit — supplemented by a proprietary collaborative working method called the 'Lincona Model,' in which the entire team participates in daily meetings on every project to optimize material use and reduce errors.

The company serves a primarily enterprise and public-sector client base, including large Swedish contractors (Peab, NCC, T-Byggen, MVB, Hedin Construction), property developers (Fastighets AB Balder, Nyfosa, Riksbyggen, OBOS Bostadsutveckling, Erik Hemberg Fastighets AB), and municipalities (Uddevalla, Tanum, Orust) along with the Swedish Transport Administration (Trafikverket) and the Church of Sweden. It also serves private individuals directly. Pricing is hourly or fixed-fee per assignment, with the company explicitly positioning itself as offering lower hourly rates than competitors while maintaining quality.

Revenue is generated entirely through professional services delivery by a small team of approximately 11 listed professionals. Lincona operates a strategic partnership with sister company Tranark AB for architectural services, creating a bundled offering, and a long-term collaboration with Lättklinkerbetong AB for prefabricated concrete expertise. A sub-brand, Lincona Brand, provides fire safety inspection services. No external funding, acquisitions, or AI initiatives are evident in the data. The firm is purely regional in its core construction services, though BAS-P consulting is offered nationwide.
