Bilfinger SE (previously named Bilfinger Berger AG) is a European company specialized in civil and industrial construction, engineering and services based in Mannheim, Germany.

History

Head office in Mannheim

Bilfinger dates back to 1880 when August Bernatz founded Bernatz Ingenieurwissenschaft as an engineering business: it became known, from 1886 as Bernatz & Grün and, from 1892, as Grün & Bilfinger.[3]

In 1970 Grün & Bilfinger acquired a majority stake in Julius Berger-Bauboag AG, itself a merger of two companies, Julius Berger Tiefbau AG and Berlinische Boden-Gesellschaft AG, both founded in 1890. The combined business, fully integrated in 1975, finally took the name Bilfinger & Berger Bauaktiengesellschaft.[3] In 1994 the acquisition of Razel Company took place.[3]

In 2001 the business changed its name to Bilfinger Berger AG.[3]

In 2005, Bilfinger bought all shares of Babcock Borsig Service Group from Deutsche Beteiligungs.[4][5]

In 2008 the company sold Razel to group Fayat for 137 million euro.[6]

In October 2009 the Company acquired directly MCE Beteiligungsverwaltungs GmbH itself, a business based in Linz focused on the design, construction and maintenance of facilities in the process industry and the energy sector.[7]

In November 2009 Bilfinger announced that it is considering floating Bilfinger Berger Australia on the Australian Securities Exchange via an initial public offering (IPO).[8] The prospectus for the IPO for the new Australian entity (named Valemus) was issued in June 2010 and the company was listed on the ASE in July.[9]

In recent years Bilfinger has shifted the focus of its activities toward the services business. In 2010, services contributed to 80% of the company’s total output volume of €8,123 million and EBIT for the services division amounted to €297 million.[10] In November 2011, Bilfinger acquired 98 percent of shares in Neo Structo Construction Private Ltd., located in Surat, India, for a purchase price of €47 million.[11] In 2010 Bilfinger became a Societas Europaea (SE).[12]

In December 2014 Bilfinger SE signed a deal to sell the construction division to Switzerland's Implenia AG leaving the building industry. It had once been Germany's second largest builder.[13]

Operations

Bilfinger SE is a Deutsche Börse MDAX index traded, leading international industrial services provider. The portfolio covers the entire value chain from consulting, engineering, manufacturing, assembly, maintenance, plant expansion as well as turnarounds and also includes environmental technologies and digital applications.[14]
Bilfinger, as a result of numerous acquisitions and disposals, is no longer a traditional construction company but instead a provider of services for industrial plants, power plants and real estate.[15] Thus, in the financial year 2010, around 80 percent of the revenue came from services and the remaining 20 percent from construction activities.[16]

The global presence of Bilfinger spans five continents with operations in Europe, United States, South East Asia, Africa and Australia.

Controversies

In March 2009, a building collapsed in Cologne due to the nearby construction site for the Cologne Stadtbahn Nord-Süd-Stadtbahn Template:De icon. The collapse is suspected to be caused by the construction works, and to several irregularities.[35][36]

Several other construction projects are suspected to have been conducted with irregularities: the Düsseldorf Stadtbahn Wehrhahn-Linie Template:De icon, the Nuremberg–Munich high-speed railway[35][36] and the Bundesautobahn 1.[37]
