Design, engineering and building data

KPS GmbH is rooted in electrical and mechanical engineering. Today we design, engineer and document technical installations across their entire life cycle – from basic evaluation to operator documentation.

Field of work 01

Building services design

Electrical engineering and automation from concept to contract award – HOAI service phases 1 to 7, site supervision on request.

Electrical building services design (MEP)

Design of the electrical trades for new builds, refurbishments and existing assets – standards-compliant, economical and coordinated with all other trades.

  • Electrical power distribution from the incoming supply point to the final circuits
  • Standby and safety power supply, UPS concepts for high-availability sites
  • Lighting, emergency lighting, earthing and lightning protection
  • Communication and network technology (DIN 276 cost group 450)
  • Cleanroom and process technology for pharma, microelectronics and battery cell production
  • HOAI service phases 1 to 7 including tendering and awarding – site supervision (phase 8) on request

Building automation & BMS controls

We bring heating, ventilation, cooling, plumbing and security onto a single BMS platform – specified so that it performs as designed once commissioned.

  • Automation schematics and functional descriptions to VDI 3814
  • Building management systems and integration via BACnet, KNX and Modbus
  • Fire alarm and voice alarm systems to DIN 14675 and DIN VDE 0833
  • Hazard alarm and security technology: access control, video, intrusion detection
  • Energy monitoring and demand-driven control strategies
  • Vendor-neutral tendering of automation services

Project support & site supervision

For production, logistics and infrastructure buildings we support delivery on site – from awarding contracts to an orderly handover to operations.

  • Tendering, awarding and technical review of bids
  • Trade coordination, scheduling and representing the client's interests
  • On-site supervision, in Germany and internationally
  • Commissioning management, functional testing and defect tracking
  • Structured handover including staff training for operations
Field of work 02

Engineering & mechanical design

Switchgear, control systems and custom mechanical design – documented to be manufacturing-ready, verifiable and reusable.

Control panel design & switchgear engineering

Cabinet and control-system engineering for industrial plants and infrastructure – from circuit diagrams through to workshop manufacture.

  • Circuit, terminal and layout diagrams in EPLAN Electric P8
  • Control cabinet layouts, operator desks and assembly planning
  • Cable pull lists and bills of materials based on maintained parts databases
  • Multilingual manufacturing and test documentation
  • Audit-proof revision history throughout the project
  • Small systems: pump controls, drive engineering and frequency converters

Mechanical engineering & special-purpose machinery

Bespoke mechanical design with complete workshop drawings, parts lists and manufacturing documentation.

  • Bespoke structural assemblies for switchgear and large frequency converters
  • Steel structure, frame and fixture design
  • Workshop drawings, material and parts lists
  • Hydraulic and lifting equipment for special applications
  • Change and revision management through to acceptance
Field of work 03

Digital building data

Models, drawings and attributes that operations can rely on for decades – BIM-ready and CAFM-compliant.

BIM, CAD and CAFM documentation

As-built and operator documentation as a reliable data basis – not a filing cabinet of paper, but a structured dataset your FM team can actually work with.

  • 3D discipline models, clash detection and model-based collaboration
  • On-site surveys and revision documents
  • CAFM-compliant data structures, attribution and handover formats
  • Final documentation, pre-inspection files and operator manuals
  • Maintenance and continuation of as-built data during operation

Energy efficiency in existing buildings

We don't offer energy consulting we can't back up with real engineering. Our contribution comes from automation: systems that run on demand, are measurable and can be re-tuned in operation.

  • Demand-driven control strategies instead of continuous operation – specified to VDI 3814
  • Metering concepts and energy monitoring as a basis for reliable consumption data
  • Upgrading existing automation stations instead of replacing them entirely
  • Up-to-date as-built data as a prerequisite for any later refurbishment decision

Small jobs welcome too

Not every project is a new build. Pump controls, drive systems with frequency converters, individual control cabinets or network planning for an office receive the same care as major projects – often faster, because our structure is lean.
