The history of KOPA-company
Company
In 1966, the surveying office was founded by the two engineering consultants for surveying HR. Dipl.-Ing. Erich Korschineck and Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Dr.techn. Kornelius Peters † (short form KOPE). After more than 30 years of successful work the office with 22 employees at that time was completely taken over by the Korschineck & Partner ZT-OEG (short form KOPA) on April 01.1999.
In 2006 the Korschineck & Partner ZT-OEG was finally reorganized to the Korschineck & Partner Vermessung ZT-GmbH of the managing directors and state authorized engineering consulants for surveying Dipl.-Ing. Dr.techn. Florian Helm, Dipl.-Ing. Johann Liebert and Dipl.-Ing. Christian Supper.
From April 01.2013 KOPA and the civil engineering office of Dipl.-Ing. Friedrich Reichhart formed the permanent working comunity ARGE REICHHART - KOPA Vermessung. After the retirement of DI. Reichhart in 2015 the brand REKO is preserved to the continuation of existing orders as well as for the realisation of follow-up orders.
KOPA currently occupies 35 full-time employees (plus 3 COE). We can cover with a graduate´s rate from more than 1/3 as well as a modern equipment in the sector of hard and software nearly the whole measurement spectrum and offer qualitatively high archievements. The size of our office enables us to guarantee a flexible and fast transaction of the orders.
As a result we can handle in Austria and especially in the metropolitan area of Vienna even more efficiently your surveying duties.
