What invisco tec dresden does

INVISCO tec Dresden GmbH is a German engineering consultancy founded in 2016 and headquartered in Dresden. The firm specializes in technical building equipment (Technische Gebäudeausrüstung, TGA) planning for special buildings (Sonderbauten), with a stated focus on three technically demanding building categories: data centers, exhibition and event venues, and high-rise structures. The company is led by managing directors Daniel Krahnert and Kai Kröber, both holding more than 25 years of industry experience and credentials including DGNB auditor status and EIPOS certifications.

The firm's service offering covers technical planning for HVAC, electrical, sanitary, and building automation systems within complex building projects, delivered using Building Information Modeling (BIM) methodology. INVISCO tec Dresden operates as a project-based professional services firm with quote-based pricing tied to individual project scopes. Its customer base consists of developers, general planners, and contractors active in the German Sonderbau market, with delivery capacity supplemented through partnerships including a collaboration with Planen & Bauen for integrated planning and a 2024 partnership with .bieker targeting the data center vertical. The firm is small (no public headcount) and was actively recruiting a Technischer Zeichner/Konstrukteur as of late 2024, indicating incremental capacity expansion.
