360° Consulting and Concept Development in MEP Systems
Consulting and concept development in energy and building technology are core services of the KONZMANN Group. We support building owners, operators, and investors in developing sustainable, cost-effective, and future-proof technical solutions.
Professional consulting and concept development ensure that buildings are planned and operated in a sustainable, efficient, and future-ready way. This includes all nine service phases defined by the German HOAI (Fee Structure for Architects and Engineers), covering every step from requirements analysis to the implementation of innovative technical systems. Our approach always takes economic viability, available subsidies, and legal regulations into account.
Thanks to the KONZMANN Group’s manufacturer and product independence, all planning and concepts are consistently geared toward the best solution for each project and its specific application.
Requirements analysis
At the beginning of every project, a comprehensive needs analysis is conducted. This involves identifying the user’s requirements, the intended use of the building, and applicable legal regulations. This analysis forms the basis for all subsequent planning steps and ensures that the technical systems are precisely tailored to the needs of the project.
Feasibility studies
Feasibility studies assess the technical, economic, and legal viability of various solution approaches. They provide decision-making support for investors and developers and help to identify and minimize risks at an early stage. Different options are compared and evaluated to determine the optimal solution.
Energy consulting
As part of energy consulting, existing or planned buildings are analyzed for their energy efficiency. Measures to reduce energy consumption and to use renewable energies are proposed. The goal is to achieve high energy efficiency standards and to lower operating costs.
Energy conceptualization / energy concept (system designs)
A tailored energy concept forms the foundation for energy-efficient and sustainable building and plant technology. Various system designs are developed that consider the specific needs of the building and the use of renewable energies. The aim is to design optimal solutions for heating, cooling, ventilation, and power supply that are both ecological and economical.
Technology consulting
Technology consulting includes the selection and evaluation of new and proven technical systems. Experts provide advice on innovative technologies such as building automation, photovoltaics, heat pumps, or intelligent control systems to minimize energy consumption and maximize comfort.
Subsidy consulting
Subsidy consulting identifies suitable governmental or regional funding programs for energy-efficient renovations, new constructions, or innovative technologies. Experts assist with the selection and application for subsidies to improve the project’s economic viability and reduce investment costs.
Renovation consulting / renovation roadmap
For existing buildings, renovation consulting is especially important. Individual renovation roadmaps are developed, taking into account both technical and economic conditions. The consulting includes measures for modernization and efficiency improvements – even during ongoing operations – ensuring that renovations can be implemented step-by-step, in a planned manner, and eligible for funding.
Feasibility Studies
The feasibility study is a crucial step in the planning and implementation of projects in energy and building technology. It serves to evaluate the viability of a project before significant financial resources and efforts are invested. Especially in a sector characterized by technological change, increasing energy demands, and sustainable practices, a well-founded feasibility study is indispensable.
The main goal of a feasibility study in energy and building technology is to examine the technical, economic, and ecological aspects of a project. This includes analyzing various technologies, materials, and methods to determine whether the proposed solutions are both practical and sustainable. The study helps identify and assess risks and provides decision-makers with the information they need to make informed choices.
The crucial steps of the feasibility study
- Definition of project scope
- Market analysis
- Technical feasibility
- Economic analysis
- Environmental impact
- Risk analysis
Subsidy Consulting
Grant and funding consultancy plays a central role in energy and building technology by helping project sponsors and property owners secure financial resources for implementing energy-efficient measures. In light of rising energy costs, the urgent need to reduce CO₂ emissions, and the increased focus on sustainable construction, funding programs are crucial to realizing innovative and sustainable solutions.
The main goal of funding consultancy is to inform companies, institutions, and private individuals about the wide range of opportunities available through national, regional, and municipal programs as well as European funding. These funds can take various forms, including grants, low-interest loans, or tax incentives, all of which help reduce the financial burden of construction projects.
