University of Heidelberg - European Institute for Neuromorphic Computing

Neuromorphic computing designs computers modeled after the brain. In Heidelberg, the FC-Gruppe realizes innovative, energy-efficient systems ideal for complex data analysis and learning in cognitive processes. We even master the challenge of an open IT structure for water-cooled wafers.

New energy supply - Klinikum Karlsruhe

The energy concept focused on maximum supply security to ensure the uninterrupted energy supply for the hospital's maximum capacity. Our solution included a gas-powered combined heat and power system, district heating through Stadtwerke Karlsruhe, two steam boilers, and three turbo chillers, also taking economic and ecological aspects into account.

European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL)

For the EMBL, we developed the technical planning for a highly specialized research building for light and electron microscopy. The room climate control presented special requirements: A relative humidity of under 10% creates the controlled conditions required for highly precise experiments.

Ortenau Klinikum - Agenda 2030

With an investment volume of around 720 million euros, Ortenau Klinikum is developing its hospital locations for the future and strengthening regional healthcare. The FC-Gruppe is responsible for the holistic planning of the technical building equipment (cost group 400) for the clinic buildings and care facilities at the locations Offenburg, Gengenbach, and Lahr.

Rhine Ordnance Barracks

A regional large clinic is being built for US military personnel on the US military site east of Ramstein Airport. The clinic is used to provide medical care for wounded soldiers from Europe, Asia, and Africa, as well as for approximately 60,000 US citizens living in southern Germany. The new building will house 120 examination and treatment rooms, approximately 70 beds, and nine operating rooms. The cleaning and maintenance of the building envelope will be carried out with the help of a facade access system.

Convention Center Heidelberg

In Heidelberg, a city with strong science and economy, a new convention center is being built next to the main train station. The main hall offers 1,900 seats. The FC-Gruppe is responsible for the conveyor systems connecting the individual levels and providing access from the underground car park. In addition to the elevators for visitors and gastronomy, a 7.5t elevator for large and heavy objects is also being implemented.

Allianz Campus Stuttgart Vaihingen

As part of the campus project, we took over the planning of technical building equipment for a future-oriented work environment with around 4,500 employees. In addition to office and conference areas, the campus includes a company restaurant, a sports hall, and a central plaza. With a kinetic energy storage system, the area meets the highest requirements for security of supply and sustainability according to DGNB Platinum.

Karlsruhe Combined Solution

With a budget of nearly 1.5 billion euros, the Kombilösung is one of the major infrastructure projects in the Karlsruhe Technology Region. The Kombilösung is a transportation infrastructure project designed to improve mobility and quality of life. The FC-Gruppe provided support for this project in the areas of schedule management, quality assurance, and performance monitoring.

Corporate headquarters Heidelberg Materials AG

For the new company headquarters of Heidelberg Materials AG at the Heidelberg location, the FC-Gruppe took on services in the areas of quality assurance, lean management, and technical controlling. The modern office building combines flexible work environments, conference areas, and a future-oriented energy concept, and posed high demands on planning, coordination, and quality assurance.

New construction of the dm corporate headquarters

The FC-Gruppe comprehensively supported and professionally advised the dm project management in all service areas and project phases to achieve the necessary measures for optimizing the construction project with regard to the set project goal while maintaining the required quality standard and adhering to the schedule and budget. A key part of the success was the collaborative interaction between all project participants, project planners, and companies.

Porsche Werk Zuffenhausen

The FC-Gruppe developed creative and feasible solutions for construction projects on spatially highly restricted factory sites. Especially at complex locations like Zuffenhausen, Weissach, and Ludwigsburg of Porsche AG, which are heavily limited by residential development, existing property boundaries, as well as traffic and rail infrastructure, the FC-Gruppe supported with strategic consulting and planning.

Municipal Clinic Building M

For the construction of Building M of the Municipal Clinic Karlsruhe, the FC-Gruppe oversaw the construction supervision of the Technical Building Equipment (KG 410–440, 470 and 480). The close integration of planning and construction execution ensured quality, schedules, and the contract-compliant implementation of complex technical systems until successful commissioning.

Klinikum Winnenden

The new hospital building has optimal structures for medical care in the Rems-Murr district. With 600 beds and ten operating rooms, the new building represents a central care facility that did not previously exist in the Rems-Murr district. As a lateral entrant, the FC-Gruppe took over the project management until completion. In doing so, we had the task of moderating different interests and bringing about a cooperative project conclusion for those involved.

Porsche Plant Leipzig

The FC-Gruppe designs the infrastructure and plant development of the expanding Porsche plant in Leipzig with comprehensive expertise. Our services included a plant development study as well as consulting, planning, tendering, and construction supervision for the plant infrastructure and utility supply. In the dynamic automotive industry, we actively advocate for modern, sustainable plants, particularly focusing on efficient energy supply.

Grid expansion SuedLink

The FC-Gruppe accompanied the process for the first partial construction permit according to the BImSchG for the SuedLink project of TransnetBW, and prepared and submitted the necessary documents for the permit. Particular attention was paid to the permission of rainwater drainage while maintaining any impact on the flood safety of the facility.

Schwarz Digits Campus

During the construction of the Schwarz Digits Campus in Bad Friedrichshall, the FC-Gruppe supported Lean project management by using analog and digital Lean management methods. Tact-oriented coordination, structured management formats, and coordinated collaboration of project participants contributed to stable project execution and the on-schedule completion of the construction project.

Rail-bound helicopter landing platform Vidia Clinics

For the helicopter landing platform, we planned the conveyor technology with rail-bound transport systems and turntables, which allow for quick and secure transport of the helicopter between the landing area and hangar. This optimizes operational processes and ensures the readiness of air rescue services when every minute counts.
