foundation construction company from Oldenburg and project shipping experts from Bremen bundle respective competencies and experiences in the joint application for and execution of large scale industrial projects.

TAGU Tiefbau GmbH „Unterweser“ from the northern German town Oldenburg and Combi Lift GmbH as part of the Bremen based shipping group Harren & Partner combine their know-how and experience in wind-energy, offshore installation and maintenance in a new joint venture. Depending on the task at hand, multidisciplinary teams of TAGU and Combi Lift experts develop individual and custom-fit solutions as well as integrated logistics concepts for major industrial projects.

The long-standing experience of TAGU in port and hydraulic engineering, waterway construction as well as offshore construction and services coupled with Combi Lifts strong points in maritime project engineering, heavy lift cargo logistics as well as the flexible Combi Lift fleet. With this mixture of specialised expertise, ships and equipment supported by experienced crews, the new found joint venture plans to make the difference in tender procedures for large international projects.

"There often is a lot of potential for optimisation in coordinating the different partial services in a large scale construction projects interface. Through the joint venture, our clients will benefit from bundled service packages from one source“, illustrates Jens Diekmann, Director of TAGU Tiefbau GmbH. “Especially in offshore projects with their often critical time frames and interaction of many different specialists, the client will benefit substantially”, Heiko Felderhoff, Director of Combi Lift GmbH, agrees with his joint venture partner. Both partners affirm, that the partnership will be comprehensive. "We both are permanently looking for new and innovative approaches to be able to offer even more efficient global solutions for our clients”, Jens Diekmann characterizes the cooperation. “A joint venture starts to really make sense, when the result shows more than the sum of the parts”, adds Heiko Felderhoff with a twinkle in his eye, “In this context, even joint newbuildings of ships could be conceivable.”

The joint venture is complemented by the company GCS – German Cargo Services GmbH. GCS is a joint company of TAGU and the Bremen based PWL Group. As shipbroker and agent, GCS is a competent partner for break-bulk, project, ro-ro, wind-offshore-energy and heavy lift transportation. GCS therefore supplements the joint venture with expertise as well as experience in sales and marketing.
