Ecological construction supervision (ÖBB) is a central part of environmental construction supervision (UBB) and ensures that construction projects are planned and implemented in an environmentally friendly manner. It supports project developers in complying with all relevant nature conservation and environmental regulations and in reducing adverse effects on plants, animals and landscapes to the necessary minimum. On behalf of the client, ecological construction supervision ensures that the officially mandated requirements of a construction project are met during all construction phases and serves as a connecting element between planning, construction and official inspection. We support you in implementing your construction project in an ecosystem-friendly manner and without avoidable delays.
