With three different bases across Ireland, Specialist Technical Services (STS) Group is a full-service provider to world renowned brand names in the Pharmaceutical, Data Centre, Utilities, Oil, Gas & Chemicals, Food & Beverage, Transport and other industry sectors. Building Ireland profiles the company which is very much a leader in electrical engineering, instrumentation, design and commissioning services.
Specialist Technical Services Group is a specialist electrical and instrumentation engineering company that operates throughout Ireland, Europe and the Middle East, with multinational clients such as Johnson & Johnson, Pfizer and CSL to name a few.

At the moment, 500 of the STS Group team are directly employed in the Republic of Ireland throughout its bases in Waterford (HQ), Cork and Dublin and its growth continues across the eight different countries from where the company operates.
Building Ireland takes a look at the company, which is part of the Berlin-headquartered Dussmann Group, that had a turnover of €182m in 2020 and continues to lead the way in electrical engineering on a global scale.
Business continues to boom for the STS Group, as the leaders in electrical engineering across Ireland, UK, Europe and The Middle East marks its 16th year this year.
Since its inception, the company has remained dedicated to being a leading and a cost-efficient provider of electrical engineering, instrumentation, design and commissioning services.
Operating with an exceptional workforce, many of the staff at STS Group have up to 40 years’ experience on major projects right around the world.
July 1, 2019 saw the company officially joining the Dussmann Group, which is a family-owned, International Services Provider that has more than 64,000 employees and has locations throughout 22 countries.
The Dussmann Group is one of the largest private multi-services providers on the planet and, after officially joining it three years ago this month, the STS Group is one of three business units within Dussmann Technical Solutions (DTS).
Indeed, STS Group has grown into becoming a full-service provider to world renowned brand names in the Life Sciences, Data Centre, Utility, Energy, Commercial, Food & Beverage and Transport sectors.
Today, the company operates with minimal overheads and carries with it a proven track record for completing intricate projects to an excellent standard for clients that are on time, in-spec and within budget.
STS Group also supports clients from start to finish when it comes to the lifecycle of a project right through to maintenance by utilising the latest software systems and tools across the industries it operates within.
Above all else, safety for employees and customers has always been the company’s top priority.
STS Group ensures that Health & Safety is carried out to a tee by all of its staff and has consistently operated to the highest possible safety and quality standards.
Complying to ISO 14001:2015, OHSAS 18001:2017 and ISO 9001:2015 standards has helped the company to achieve this and the high standard of Health & Safety continues at STS Group.
This past November saw the company earning a double success at the National Irish Safety Organisation (NISO) Awards.
Held in Killarney on November 4th, the NISO Awards recognise how organisations manage health and safety at work and offer a showcase for the health and safety performance of a business.
STS Group enjoyed success last year in the Construction – Building Services Award, marking great recognition of its Health and Safety performance in the M&E sector, and also in the Consistent High Achiever Award, which recognised that the company has received distinction or better for the past six years in-a-row.
The awards epitomised the culture of heath and safety within STS Group and its determination in its goal of getting everybody home safe every day.
“These awards would not be possible but for the incredible efforts made by all our workforce and supply chain partners to continuously improve our safety standards,” a statement from the company on the double award success read on stsgroup.ie.
“All of this was done whilst operating throughout a global pandemic and our workers have gone above and beyond to keep our projects operating safely.
“We are truly grateful for your continued help and support in keeping everyone safe at work.”
