Bilfinger & Berger (Germany)
Bilfinger Berger is a large, internationally-active construction company
based in Mannheim, Germany and one of the leaders in the field,
pushing through public-private partnership (PPP) projects. Here are
some examples:
Bilfinger Berger operates 18 schools and four hospitals in the UK;
in Germany, they concluded the country’s first ever PPP project to
develop “a new maximum security prison”; Bilfinger Berger Project
Investments (BBPI) is the leading investor in “Projektgesellschaft
Kreishaus Unna GmbH”, a project company which will redevelop,
renovate and operate the Administration Building of the Unna District
in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany for a period of 25 years.
BBPI is an important contributor to the development of schools in the
UK. With an “impressive” portfolio of seven educational PPP projects
covering 18 secondary schools and 4 institutes of further education,
BBPI has a track record of delivering quality buildings and influencing
new methods of teaching and learning. This knowledge and experience
is being applied in BBPI’s current educational tenders across Australia,
and BBPI is financing, developing and will subsequently operate East
Down Colleges and Lisburn College in Northern Ireland for a period
of 25 years. Over and above all this, Bilfinger Berger is currently active
on the international water scene. In 2005, the company tried to gain
control of the water supply in Santa Fe Province/Argentina via its
subsidiary Passavant-Roediger Umwelttechnik GmbH, but failed in its
endeavours.
