The foundation of our actions

For us, responsibility means acting sustainably and using resources consciously. Trust is created through transparency and reliability towards our customers, partners and employees. Innovation drives us to break new ground and develop solutions that combine future and tradition.
Our values are the compass that guides us - for buildings that last and relationships that grow.
The values of the ERNE Group
We want financially sustainable success as the basis for our entrepreneurial activities. Adequate profitability is the prerequisite for this. It enables investment for and in our employees and in infrastructure, machinery and materials, it secures jobs and the creation of new positions and financial independence. The basis for this are sustainable, resource-conserving production processes, respectful and caring treatment of our employees, occupational safety and our social commitment to society.
Satisfied customers are the central goal of our work. We focus on their wishes and needs. Your orders are the foundation of our business activities today and tomorrow. We carry out the tasks assigned to us effectively, comprehensively, reliably and punctually with our skills and experience and with the utmost integrity.
We see the challenges of the future as an incentive to translate what we have achieved so far and the rich history of our family business into sustainable future success. Courage is an essential part of our corporate DNA. Courage shapes our entrepreneurial actions and the associated decisions. Courage as an "attitude to life" motivates each and every one of us and brings joy to our day-to-day work.
The tradition of the family and its entrepreneurship is our foundation. We "live" this tradition of the family business in every aspect of our work. The mutual trust and exceptional loyalty of our highly trained employees across the entire spectrum of our activities are a decisive result of this family identity. But also the attitude of our employees to their work: their awareness of occupational safety is their top priority and they value the opportunity to find individual fulfillment in their work and to be able to "create" something. This is reflected, among other things, in a likeable down-to-earth attitude. Another result - the consistently implemented conviction that entrepreneurial freedom and the personal responsibility of each employee in the sense of decentralized entrepreneurship are the key to success.
An open culture of communication and courageous action provides energy and motivation. It enables us to attract highly qualified employees and makes us one of the best companies in the industry. It is also the link that unites the individual companies despite their own history, mentality and cultural differences. The culture of openness and "we" and "for each other" should and will also prepare the ground for further integration, networking and bonding between the individual companies. In the sense of a stable balance of different tasks for the major goal of joint success. This culture manifests itself not least and above all as openness to new ideas and the inspiring spirit of new colleagues.
Attentive to the individual potential of our counterparts, we are always keen to develop the joint opportunities to the full. Honest attention and benevolent respect are the expression of a basic attitude of appreciation that we cultivate among ourselves, but also and especially in trusting, transparent cooperation with customers and supply partners.
The individual responsibility of each employee, but also of the individual companies in our Group, as well as our consistent customer focus ensure the enormous agility of all players - and a decisive advantage in a tough competitive environment. This is because everyone has the courage to make decisions and take the initiative and implement them in the interests of our mutual and personal success. Flat hierarchies, lean structures, short decision-making paths with the greatest possible transparency, but also a pragmatic down-to-earth approach enable a fast pace, while at the same time all aspects of occupational safety are taken into account.
Innovations are an essential part of our strategic orientation and day-to-day operations. They create the conditions for sustainable value creation - in terms of current profitability and securing the future. The consistent occupation of (supposed) niches and the associated development of new fields of activity is the practical result of this innovative spirit. This constantly creates new opportunities to enter the market. The willingness to innovate is also the reason for our reputation as an ideal partner for "specialties" in the construction sector, for complex construction tasks and environmentally friendly construction. Our company is thus a sought-after problem solver for particularly demanding challenges in the construction sector - also and especially - with valued consulting expertise.
The will to change - in each individual, but also in structures and processes - is the linchpin (starting point) of past and future success. The willingness to change is at the heart of the Group's strategic orientation - in the sense of promoting and challenging the individual companies. Readiness for change is understood as a central and recurring challenge to accompany and actively shape the transformation of construction and the construction industry with foresight. A key objective here is to be involved in the overall construction process from the outset as a partner to the customer. In operational terms, this means expanding our existing and valued consulting expertise with a broad range of skills and a willingness to involve suitable partners in projects.
