Museum leadership remains under Spie's control.
In a recent announcement, it has been confirmed that Spie, a leading provider of technical services, will continue its partnership with the German Historical Museum in Berlin for another five years. Stefan Schusterschitz, the head of the Efficient Buildings business unit at SPIE Germany, Switzerland, and Austria, will oversee the operations from his base in Germany.
The German Historical Museum, one of the most significant history museums worldwide, houses an extensive collection of artifacts and exhibits that chronicle Germany's rich and complex history. Spie's technical expertise will ensure that these cultural assets are presented and preserved under the best possible conditions.
Spie's services at the German Historical Museum will include the technical operation and maintenance of all systems, such as heating, ventilation, sanitation, climate technology, fire and safety technology, and energy consulting. This comprehensive approach will ensure the museum's facilities are not only functional but also energy-efficient, aligning with Spie's commitment to sustainability.
Stefan Schusterschitz stated that Spie has been managing special buildings for over two decades, and the German Historical Museum is no exception. The company currently manages several buildings in Berlin, including the Pei Building, the Neue Wache, and the Depot. However, the German Historical Museum was not previously among them, making this extension of the partnership particularly noteworthy.
The Federal Agency for Real Estate Tasks (BImA) has commissioned Spie for another five years to manage the technical building operations of the German Historical Museum. This decision underscores the trust placed in Spie's capabilities and their proven track record in managing complex and historically significant buildings.
As the head of the Efficient Facilities business area at Spie Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Schusterschitz is well-equipped to lead the team in this endeavour. His expertise and commitment to delivering high-quality services will undoubtedly contribute to the continued success of the German Historical Museum.
With this extended partnership, visitors to the German Historical Museum can look forward to experiencing the museum's exhibits in a comfortable and well-maintained environment for years to come.
