Infrastructure engineering and electrical installations across energy, water, and telecoms
Omninstal is a 51–200-person engineering and construction contractor operating across electrical, mechanical, renewable energy, and utility infrastructure projects. The tech stack is heavily weighted toward legacy enterprise (SAP, Oracle Primavera, AutoCAD, BIM) with no adopting or replacing signals—typical of capital-project organizations where switching costs are prohibitive. Hiring velocity is accelerating, with engineering and construction roles dominating the pipeline, but the pain-point list (quality-cost-schedule tradeoffs, budget compliance, inventory control, repair logistics) suggests operational friction that manual spreadsheet-heavy workflows (Excel, Power BI) are struggling to resolve at scale.
Notable leadership hires: Mechanical Installations Lead, Substation Director, Mechanical Installations Team Lead, Construction Director, Director of Works
Omninstal delivers engineering, procurement, and construction services for infrastructure projects in energy transmission, distribution, water, gas, telecommunications, and renewable energy sectors. The company was founded in 1981 as a purely electrical installations business and was integrated into Grupo Elecnor in 1990, gaining access to larger project networks and diversified service lines. Today the firm operates primarily in Portugal and Romania, with a project portfolio spanning substation work, mechanical and HVAC installations, and renewable energy development. The business runs on enterprise resource planning (SAP, Primavera) and project management tools (Microsoft Project, BIM, AutoCAD), reflecting the capital-intensive, regulated nature of infrastructure delivery.
SAP and Oracle Primavera for enterprise resource planning and project control; AutoCAD and BIM for design and site coordination; Microsoft Office, Excel, Power BI, and Project for planning and reporting. No adopting or replacing signals indicate a stable, legacy-oriented toolset.
Active projects include coordination and delivery of HVAC/mechanical installations, renewable energy infrastructure, and substation work. Internal focus areas include quality-cost-schedule optimization and budget compliance across construction programs.
