STEER.E
Westphal Wavetec GmbH
Project management as a service · EV charging infrastructure

Your project manager.
On subscription.

EV charging projects rarely fail because of the technology — they fail for lack of control and lack of delivery capacity. STEER.E provides both: project management on a fixed monthly hour allowance, and established subcontractors for implementation.

Two ways to work with us

You plan, we manage.
Or we plan it with you.

01 · YOUR PROJECT, YOUR DESIGN

We take over project management.

The design is done or the project is already under way. We manage grid operators, trades, schedules and costs through to acceptance — on a fixed monthly hour allowance, with a report.

Customer access to the STEER.E platform: calendar with construction days and regular meetings, sample data
02 · WE PLAN AND BUILD

First in the model. Then on site.

We build your site to scale in 3D, plan every metre of cable and build it with our partners through to acceptance.

Deviation

Model versus plan over 93 m of cable route. We order from the model, not from estimates.

Every component in its place

Rails, tap-off boxes, wallboxes and wall openings as individual objects, each with its bill-of-quantities item. That is where the installation plan and bill of materials come from.

Construction schedule

With prerequisites. The biggest risk is tackled on day one of construction.

PMaaS · The retainer model

Project management
you can book.

Many companies have EV charging projects but no project manager — and not enough work for a full-time post. That is exactly what our retainer model is for: a fixed hour allowance per month, one dedicated contact, a predictable budget.

What sets this apart from classic consulting: you can see at any time what every hour was spent on. At month end you get the report — not a rough estimate, but accurate to the hour, straight from our project system.

Fixed monthly allowance instead of open-ended day rates
Time recorded to the minute, reported monthly
Scalable: more projects, more hours — no renegotiation
Visibility of every project’s status at any time

Three building blocks. One course.

Bookable individually, strongest together: control, implementation and the fast track from site survey to offer.

01 · MANAGE

Project management as a service

Your project manager on a monthly allowance — from feasibility and trade coordination through to handover.

One dedicated contact, predictable budget
Schedule, cost and quality control
Monthly activity report, accurate to the hour
02 · BUILD

Subcontractors who deliver

The bottleneck is rarely the plan — it is execution. We bring established subcontractors for civil works and electrical installation, and manage them through our platform.

Capacity when your own team is fully booked
One party responsible for all trades
Partners see exactly their project — nothing more
03 · QUOTE

From site survey to offer

Digitally recorded site surveys become reliable offers without media breaks — on a verified price basis, in days rather than weeks.

Structured on-site recording instead of paperwork
Calculation on a current price basis
Traceable from appointment to invoice

How a project runs with us.

Every task has a number, every status can be retrieved — one continuous chain from the first appointment to billing.

Site survey

Structured on-site recording: grid connection, parking spaces, cable routes — captured digitally, with photos and mandatory checkpoints.

Offer

The site survey flows straight into the calculation without media breaks — checked, traceable, fast.

Implementation

Coordination of grid operator, civil works and electrical installation — with our own subcontractors where capacity is lacking.

Report

Monthly report and activity report accurate to the hour — you always know where your project and your budget stand.

About us
2019in EV charging
infrastructure since

A team that knows this market
from the inside.

We are not a newly founded consultancy. We are a project team that has been building EV charging infrastructure since 2019 — and in that time has seen pretty much everything that can go wrong in such projects.

We have planned and delivered AC and DC infrastructure for large parking operators and resellers, worked our way through countless rounds with distribution grid operators, and learned where projects get stuck in practice: on connection capacity, on responsibilities, on deadlines nobody tracks.

We now offer this experience to the market as STEER.E — as a project management team you can book.

DSO
Grid operator coordinationConnection requests, connection capacity, energisation — we know the way through the procedures and the typical pitfalls.
AC/DC

From the field · Summer 2026

Charging works all over Europe.

One summer, one route across Europe: Italy, Austria, Slovakia, Germany. Charging works wherever infrastructure has been built — and that is exactly the point. We know charging infrastructure not only from plans and applications, but from hands-on experience at the plug.

Frequently asked questions.

The questions that come up in almost every first conversation — answered here in advance.

What does EV charging infrastructure for an apartment building cost?

It depends on the power path: where is the grid connection, how far is it to the parking space, is the connection capacity sufficient? After a site survey we give you a reliable quantity schedule with prices — before that, any figure would be a guess. The site survey itself is the cheapest part of the whole project.

What does project management as a service (PMaaS) mean?

You book project management on subscription instead of creating a post: a fixed monthly hour allowance, documented to the minute. We manage design, subcontractors, schedules and billing — you keep the decisions.

Do you also handle implementation — civil works and electrical?

Yes. We work with established subcontractors for civil works and electrical installation and coordinate both trades from a single source — AC wallboxes as well as DC rapid chargers.

Is there funding for charge points in multi-unit buildings?

Yes — the federal programme “Laden im Mehrparteienhaus” (charging in multi-unit residential buildings, 2026) subsidises charge points, grid connection and load management. In the first conversation we check what is eligible for your property, and we prepare the application documents.

Which region do you cover?

We are based in Ahrensburg near Hamburg; we have managed and delivered projects throughout Germany and elsewhere in Europe — from Münster to Verona.

How quickly can you provide an offer?

After the site survey we document the power path from grid connection to charge point. From that, the offer is usually ready within a few working days — complete, with quantities instead of lump sums.

Let’s talk about your project.

A short first conversation is enough to assess what is possible for your property — technically, in terms of timing and in terms of funding.
