PPG

What PPG does

PPG d.o.o. Sarajevo is a privately held civil engineering and project management consultancy founded in 2012 in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The firm delivers design, geotechnical studies, construction supervision, and project management services for transport, water, energy, and urban infrastructure projects, with documented involvement in 66 km of highways, 9.8 km of bridges, and 31 km of tunnels — including the longest tunnels and bridges in BiH. Its competitive position rests on specialized FIDIC contract expertise, ISO 9001/14001/45001 certifications, and prequalification for projects financed by EIB, EBRD, World Bank, and the Western Balkans Investment Framework. Operations are conducted through offices in Sarajevo, Čapljina, Zagreb, and Podgorica, with additional project presence in Serbia, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, and Turkey.

The company's service offering spans core engineering (highway, railway, bridge, tunnel, and geotechnical design), construction supervision under FIDIC conditions, and corporate advisory including capacity building and management consultancy. Customers are predominantly government transport agencies (Autoceste FBiH, Motorways of Republic of Srpska, Roads of FBiH, Transport Administration of Montenegro) and state-owned enterprises (Serbia Cargo JSC, Public Company Luka Brčko, JKP ViK Sarajevo), supplemented by EU Delegation engagements and subconsultant roles for international primes such as EGIS International (France). Revenue is generated through competitive tenders and multi-year professional services contracts. The firm is led by Managing Director Emina Ramčić, with a team of 70 full-time engineers and architects and access to a broader network of specialists.

The business model is project-based professional services: fees are earned through consulting contracts on infrastructure projects, with no standard pricing tiers and no disclosed per-unit pricing. The go-to-market relies on direct tendering and relationship-based engagement with public-sector clients and international financing institutions. Geographic expansion has been the primary growth lever, with regional offices opened in Croatia and Montenegro to support cross-border project pursuit, while the firm maintains an opportunistic presence in Central Asia (Kyrgyzstan), Eastern Europe (Moldova), and Turkey.
