Defence capability requires high-performing locations, resilient infrastructure, secure supplies of energy and raw materials, and available industrial capacity.
Discuss the project with our defense experts
DMT GROUP supports the German Armed Forces, public sector clients and companies in the security and defence industry in expanding their sites and production capacities, securing supplies and ensuring that technical infrastructure remains resilient and available.
Germany and Europe are expanding their defence capabilities. This also places greater demands on military sites, industrial capacity and defence-related infrastructure. Projects must be implemented more quickly, existing facilities and properties must be upgraded, and supplies must be guaranteed even under difficult conditions.
DMT brings many years of engineering and consultancy experience from technically demanding, safety-critical and highly regulated sectors. These include plant and process engineering, infrastructure and civil engineering, raw materials and geotechnical engineering, as well as measurement technology and monitoring systems.
We apply these expertise specifically to defence projects: from military properties and supply systems to production sites and supply chains within the defence industry.

Let’s work together to determine how we can best support your defence project.
Military sites need to be expanded, modernised and upgraded to meet new requirements. This requires reliable site data, sound technical planning and swift implementation.
DMT provides support through site and ground investigations, specialist geotechnical planning, route and infrastructure engineering, tunnel and specialist civil engineering planning, as well as project management and services provided throughout the construction process. Surveying, 3D as-built surveys and digital planning methods complete the portfolio.
Rising demand requires additional production capacity, often under tight time constraints whilst existing sites continue to operate.
DMT supports new construction projects as well as extensions and refurbishments of existing plants. Its range of services includes feasibility studies, process engineering, basic engineering and detailed engineering, EPC and EPCM services, project management, construction supervision, commissioning, capacity expansion and plant optimisation.
The availability of energy, fuel, water and other site-critical supply infrastructure is an essential prerequisite for operational readiness and sustainability.
DMT develops site-specific supply concepts, taking a holistic view of energy, water, fuel, storage, stockpiling, backup systems and logistical conditions. Temporary self-sufficient operational phases, as well as technical options for hydrogen and synthetic fuels, can also be taken into account.
Critical and strategic raw materials determine the production and supply capabilities of numerous defence technologies and applications. Shortages or reliance on a single source of supply can directly compromise necessary capacities.
DMT analyses raw material requirements, supply chains and supply risks, and develops options for diversification, raw material efficiency and the circular economy. Our international expertise in mining and processing also enables us to carry out technical assessments of raw material projects and processing plants.
This provides companies with transparency regarding which raw materials have a particular impact on their supply capabilities and which technical, conceptual and strategic measures can be taken to reduce dependencies.
It must be possible to carry out a robust assessment of the condition of defence-related structures, facilities and infrastructure.
DMT develops monitoring solutions for structures, tunnels, facilities, machinery and geotechnical systems. High-precision surveying, 3D as-built surveys, geodetic and geophysical methods, and digital geodata help to detect changes at an early stage and make informed decisions regarding operation, maintenance and safety measures.
DMT provides support in the systematic assessment of technical risks, interdependencies and potential failure scenarios. Its range of services includes risk and hazard analyses, safety and resilience concepts, impact analyses, business continuity plans, and emergency and supply chain plans. In addition, we offer consultancy and engineering services for fire and explosion protection.
Structured resilience assessments provide transparency regarding risks in the areas of energy supply, raw materials, supply chains and infrastructure, and form the basis for prioritised measures to strengthen resilience and security of supply.
Many projects begin with a specific technical question, even before the scope of work has been fully defined.
Our defence experts will work with you to identify which of DMT’s areas of expertise are relevant to your project and to determine the most appropriate technical approach to take.
DMT supports defence projects from the initial technical assessment right through to modernisation during operation: site surveys, risk analyses, studies and technical concepts provide a robust basis for decision-making. Planning, engineering and project management lead to implementation. Monitoring and technical optimisation then support reliable operation. Digital methods such as BIM, GIS, 3D models and digital monitoring solutions link the individual project phases.
DMT combines infrastructure and plant engineering with expertise in energy, raw materials and geotechnical engineering, as well as its own measurement and monitoring technology.
This enables technical interdependencies and interfaces to be considered jointly right from the early stages of a project. Experience gained from high-risk technologies and regulated industries, as well as established processes for handling classified information, complement this expertise.
As part of the TÜV NORD GROUP, DMT can draw on further specialist expertise as required. Testing, inspection and certification, cyber security and qualification are provided by the relevant subsidiaries.
In addition to the DMT GROUP’s engineering and consultancy portfolio, the TÜV NORD GROUP offers a range of further specialised services for the security and defence sectors.
TÜV NORD provides support through testing, auditing and certification services, as well as other TIC services for applications relevant to security and defence.
The TÜV NORD Training Centre offers training programmes for organisations and staff with heightened security requirements.
TÜV NORD – Security and Defence / DEFS
TÜVIT supports public authorities, state and alliance defence institutions, and companies in the defence supply chain with information security and cyber resilience.
DMT provides support, in particular, in the areas of military and defence-related infrastructure, plant and production engineering, resilient energy and fuel supply, security of raw materials, geotechnical engineering, monitoring, surveying, and security and resilience consultancy.
Yes. DMT can draw on its existing expertise in site surveys, geotechnical engineering, infrastructure planning, energy supply, surveying and monitoring for the construction, extension, modernisation, refurbishment and decommissioning of military sites.
Yes. DMT provides support for both new builds and the expansion and refurbishment of existing plants. Its portfolio includes, amongst other things, feasibility studies, process engineering, basic and detailed engineering, EPCM, project management, construction supervision, commissioning, as well as capacity expansion and plant optimisation.
DMT develops concepts for resilient energy and site supply, evaluates technical options for backup systems and decentralised fuel supply, and analyses dependencies relating to critical and strategic raw materials and supply chains.
Yes. DMT can provide support right from the outset, during site assessment, feasibility studies, risk analysis and the development of technical concepts. This enables technical options and key project risks to be assessed at an early stage and the next planning steps to be structured.
DMT focuses on engineering and consultancy. Complementary services in the areas of testing, inspection and certification, cyber security and training are provided by specialist companies within the TÜV NORD GROUP.
