Meister Engineering Group (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and President: Daisuke Hirano; hereinafter "the Company") announced that, effective March 30, 2026, it has welcomed Nies Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture; Representative Director and President: Masato Suzuki; hereinafter "Nies Co."), which operates a fire safety equipment construction business, into the Meister Engineering Group through a business and capital alliance.
▶ Purpose of Welcoming into the "Technology Service Federation"
The Company Group's mission is to support the prerequisites for society's existence, with two main segments: maintenance of "super critical infrastructure" (*1) such as lifelines, plants, and urban civil engineering, and "mechatronics" which broadly supports manufacturing industries such as semiconductors, heavy electrical equipment, medical, and automotive-related fields.
However, in these areas, there is a progressing shortage and aging of skilled engineers who support the field. In the "disaster prevention" domain, which the Company positions as a part of super critical infrastructure, as disasters become more severe and frequent, the importance of equipment is being advocated, and securing personnel for maintenance and construction is a major challenge.
To address this social issue, the Company is promoting a "Technology Service Federation" (*2) management, where it welcomes SMEs with unique and high technical capabilities into the group, respects their autonomy, shares group resources in aspects such as recruitment, training, and business DX, and mutually complements each other. With Nies Co.'s participation in the group, the Company aims to further accelerate this federation concept, particularly to expand the service supply system in the disaster prevention equipment business, which secures the safety of social and economic life.
▶ About Nies Co., Ltd.
Founded in 2000, Nies Co. operates with the vision of "making urban life safe and comfortable with thorough measures." Based in Nagoya City, it primarily conducts various fire safety equipment construction projects based on the Fire Service Act and Building Standards Act. With many qualified fire safety equipment engineers, it provides comprehensive services from the installation of fire extinguishing and alarm systems to associated electrical work. Backed by a stable order base and sound financial health, it has accumulated approximately 100 construction projects annually, earning deep trust from customers. Building on its track record of handling diverse sites requiring high construction precision, such as commercial facilities, factories, and public facilities in the Tokai area, it has steadily expanded its business scale, including extending its market to the Kanto region in recent years.
Nies Co.'s characteristics include a vibrant organizational structure centered on young employees and a high-quality in-house construction system achieved through thorough process management. These strengths are expected to contribute to improving the technical standards of the entire group. Going forward, with an eye on collaboration with other group companies, including Echo Bosai Co., Ltd. (Tokyo, joined the group in 2018) and Bosai Consultant (Hokkaido, joined the group in 2025), which also operate disaster prevention equipment-related businesses, Nies Co. will leverage its know-how and unique features to enhance its business foundation and further improve service quality.

About Meister Engineering Group
Since its founding in 1974, Meister Engineering Group has been an engineer collective committed to "supporting society with technology." Its mission is to connect manufacturing and infrastructure, which support people's daily lives and social and economic activities, to the future. It forms a "Technology Service Federation" (*2) where SMEs with high technical capabilities gather and collaborate.
*1 Super Critical Infrastructure: Regarding the 14 areas of "critical infrastructure fields" defined by the government, the Company uses the term "super critical infrastructure" because these are difficult to replace with alternatives, and their functional cessation or decline is expected to cause significant social disruption. Engineers from each company in our group are engaged in maintenance work on-site that contributes to the functional maintenance and stable operation of super critical infrastructure.
*2 Technology Service Federation: Meister Engineering Group takes over the businesses of SMEs with high technical capabilities and welcomes them as partners. Participating companies leverage their respective strengths, maintain their independence, and support and collaborate with each other to build a federal management base that aims for mutual growth.
