HOCHTIEF’s reputation for large, complex
projects around the world started with its
two founders - the Helfmann brothers -
in 1875. |
|
|
|
Their goal was to be among the best, most
innovative builders in Europe. |
|
|
|
Today, we are one of the few companies in |
|
the
world able to undertake a project from
design through facility management
to operation in almost all relevant
construction markets. |
|
|
|
We are committed to constantly improving
our total project leadership approach in |
|
order
to meet our clients’ needs. |

construction are costs due to inefficiencies, mistakes, delays, and poor
communications.”
