Management.
After many years in project management positions, Sophia Hatzelmann and Stefan Albert founded ahc GmbH in 2007 with the aim of offering technically demanding project management. From the beginning, a balanced mix of technical and methodological knowledge was particularly important to them. Today, ahc GmbH offers a diverse project management portfolio with over 60 employees.
Our employees are not only highly trained and qualified, they also enjoy their work. Thanks to this combination, we drive our clients' projects forward together and ensure long-term, trusting cooperation. Our clients appreciate the sustainable advice we provide and have repeatedly entrusted us with the responsibility for extensive investment and development projects for many years.
