Vision statement
SCHNABEL is an international service provider specializing in complex, real estate related engineering services.

Mission statement
As independent engineering consultants we advise our customers worldwide in the planning of highly available, complex building services.

Highest quality and the use of renewable energy supports our concept of energy-efficient construction.

Our experience guarantees perfection and reliability.

Do you have a project in the planning phase? We build local teams with the appropriate expertise to provide quality solutions that are on time and on budget. From five locations throughout Germany, our 100-strong staff guarantees that SCHNABEL AG is always close to its clients. And that matters to us, because a project can only thrive and flourish if there is a lively exchange of ideas.

Vigorous and consistent overseas activities and a commitment to offering good, well-structured planning and consulting services beyond our own borders have helped SCHNABEL AG establish a market presence abroad as well as at home. To date, we have opened offices in Dubai and Romania and our two subsidiaries in India and Germany complete the picture.

With its integral consulting approach, SCHNABEL AG offers its clients planning, project control and monitoring for the entire technical infrastructure and organisation of modern data centers, administrative buildings and production facilities. The provision of individually tailored solutions and expertise is always at the top of our priority list.

Core Competences
In 30 years of market presence we have built up longstanding customer relationships based on our high standards of technical quality, on confidence and on trust. And that’s what makes the real difference to what we deliver: we can only plan you a tailor-made server room if you trust us.

Apart from the cornerstone of trust, it is our highly motivated and dedicated staff that makes SCHNABEL AG what it is today – a dynamic, modern, forward-looking organisation that never loses sight of the client and his needs.

Because we see ourselves and our clients as partners. We guarantee the high quality that they expect and we achieve this, above all, by working closely together with them to help define their project requirements. We involve everyone: clients, developers, architects and other experts so that we can guarantee the best possible result.

Our highly motivated and dedicated employees are characterized by their high levels of expertise, their sure instinct for the latest developments and their ability to put them into practice. We know that our employees are our most important asset, and so continuous learning and development is an important part of our company culture. Communication and transparency play an equally important role, because people will only give peak performances in an environment of openness and cooperation. This applies to both colleagues and clients alike.

Over the past 30 years we have planned data centers for a large number of banks and insurance companies. Other clients who have profited from our expertise are power supply companies, industrial organisations, internet providers and data processing firms.

Commitment
We know how important it is to generate interest in this profession and to help prepare young engineers for their careers, which is why we are very involved in the promotion of young talent.

As well as maintaining joint projects with universities both at home and overseas, SCHNABEL AG has set new benchmarks with the NODE newcomers’ prize. Not only does the prize offer an incentive to focus on data center planning, but it also aims to go one step further by raising awareness of how energy resources are used.

SCHNABEL AG is represented at a wide variety of forums, events and trade fairs. In our lectures, we reveal the complexities of data center planning, what security technology really involves, the many facets of building services engineering and what it takes to successfully complete such projects.

Another facet of our commitment is the SCHNABEL Academy. This is where engineers and data center operators can learn the basics of data center planning. Because in our opinion, the better informed our clients are, the more effectively we can advise them! As part of our close cooperation with universities at home and abroad, the SCHNABEL Academy also plays an active part in the training of young engineers. With us, students get the chance to gather experience before they graduate.
