Novia Consulting Gmbh

What Novia Consulting Gmbh does

NOVIA Consulting GmbH is a German construction management and consulting firm headquartered in Düsseldorf. Founded in 2017, the company specializes in two integrated service lines — Projektsteuerung (project steering per AHO standards) and Baumanagement (construction management covering HOAI phases 6-8). The firm operates across four German offices in Düsseldorf, Hamburg, Frankfurt, and Berlin through a group structure comprising NOVIA Consulting GmbH and three regional Baumanagement subsidiaries (Hamburg, Süd, Berlin). The portfolio spans more than 70 commercial, residential, healthcare, logistics, education, and public building projects.

The service offering combines core project steering and construction supervision with specialized modules — technical due diligence, investor and bank monitoring, commissioning management (Inbetriebnahmemanagement), tendering/contracting/billing (AVA), and ESG consulting. Engagement is delivered by dedicated project teams following German construction law frameworks (HOAI, AHO). Representative mandates include the Eclipse office (50,600 m², Düsseldorf), Eden Tower (263 units, Frankfurt), ROOTS timber-hybrid high-rise (36,200 m²), REWE logistics center RED24 HUZ (124,700 m², Henstedt-Ulzburg), Debeka headquarters extension (55,250 m², Koblenz), and HRW Hochschule Ruhr West campus (62,500 m²).

NOVIA generates revenue through project-based professional services engagements, contracted for specific construction phases or full project lifecycles with quote-based pricing. The firm serves private developers, public institutions (Landeshauptstadt Düsseldorf, BLB NRW), corporate occupiers (Rewe, Debeka), institutional investors (Aachener Grundvermögen, IMMOBEL Luxembourg), and nonprofit clients (SOS-Kinderdorf). Go-to-market relies on direct client engagement, industry association membership (BFW NRW, ICG), and digital channels (LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook). Leadership comprises founder Lars Tillack and managing shareholders Thomas Becker and Markus Schramm, with succession underway through Melanie Kunze's promotion to the management board effective July 2026.

Scale indicators2 records

Recent moves7 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• AECOM: Global infrastructure and real estate consultancy offering program/construction management services in Germany. Competes for large-scale German real estate mandates where NOVIA is sometimes too small to bid alone.
• Züblin (Ed. Züblin AG): Stuttgart-based Strabag subsidiary providing integrated real estate construction, project development, and project management services in Germany. Comparable scope on the construction execution side of NOVIA's service offering.
• Arcadis: Dutch-headquartered global design and consultancy with German real estate PM capabilities after the IBI/DMSW/Hyder acquisitions. Competes for the same German institutional and developer mandates as NOVIA, though typically on larger programs.
• JLL Project & Development Services: JLL's German PDS division delivers project management, cost consultancy, and technical due diligence for occupiers and investors. Overlaps with NOVIA's investor and tenant segments and competes for similar institutional mandates.
• CBRE Project Management: Global real estate services giant with a substantial Project Management and Owner's Representation practice serving German institutional investors, developers, and corporate occupiers. Comparable target customer base to NOVIA's enterprise client roster.
• HOCHTIEF (Real Estate Development): Germany's largest construction group (controlled by ACS) with in-house project management and real estate development capabilities. Adjacent competitor that could insource the type of mandates NOVIA performs for German developers.
• WSP Real Estate: Global professional services firm with a sizable German real estate PM practice post-PSP/Wood Group acquisitions. Comparable on integrated PM/due diligence/ESG advisory positioning for institutional clients.

Direct peers

• Drees & Sommer: Stuttgart-headquartered German project management and construction consultancy with deep AHO/HOAI credentials across real estate, infrastructure, and ESG advisory. Most directly comparable peer given overlapping service portfolio and German market specialization.
• Turner & Townsend: Global project management and cost consultancy with a strong German real estate practice delivering project management, cost consulting, and project controls. Closely matches NOVIA's combined Projektsteuerung/Baumanagement plus due diligence offering.
• Hill International: Specialized construction project management consultancy serving real estate, transportation, and infrastructure clients; recently acquired by Global Infrastructure Solutions. Comparable in pure-play PM/CM focus with significant European real estate presence.
