Tunnel and civil engineering contractor for D/A/CH infrastructure projects
Baresel Tunnelbau is a regional tunnel and civil engineering contractor founded in 1876, now part of the larger Köster Group. The tech stack—iTWO, Revit, AutoCAD Civil 3D, BIM, Power BI, Dynamics 365—reflects a firm mid-transition: traditional CAD/BIM tools dominate, but ERP and BI adoption signals moves toward integrated project controls. Active projects span new energy infrastructure, waste management facilities, and cable routes across Germany, while hiring velocity is decelerating despite 283 open roles—a pattern typical of construction firms adjusting to economic headwinds.
Baresel Tunnelbau delivers full-service tunnel, underground, and civil engineering for complex infrastructure across Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. The company operates as part of the Köster Group (2,000+ employees total), with roughly 200–500 staff focused on design, execution, and project management. Work spans technically demanding underground construction, turnkey civil projects, and energy infrastructure buildouts. Pain points center on integrated quality-schedule-cost compliance across large, parallel projects—a control challenge the firm is addressing through digital innovation pilots and knowledge management system deployment.
Tunnelbau specializes in tunnel construction, underground works, and civil engineering projects for the D/A/CH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland).
