ABOUT US
Your partner for successful engineering of industrial projects – based on the win-win-win principle.

DESIGN
BUILD
LINK
DBL stands for what we do:
Design – planning plants thoroughly.
Build – making sure that what gets built is what was planned.
Link – connecting all trades, stakeholders and interfaces into one working whole.
And DBL stands for Daniel Bachner-Lehner, who founded the consultancy in Eberstalzell, Upper Austria, to bring exactly that to complex industrial projects: clarity, structure and decisions that hold.

CLARITY BEFORE ACTION. RESPONSIBILITY BEFORE SPEED. TEAM BEFORE EGO.
These three sentences guide our decisions when things get tight – in the project, in the team and with our clients.
HOW WE WORK
Proactive
We think schedules, resources and decisions further ahead than the next milestone. Knowing early what is coming leaves time for good solutions instead of firefighting.
Pragmatic
What matters to us is what works on site. Standards and guidelines set the frame – what counts is a solution that is simple, safe and makes sense. What has proven itself in one project, we bring to the next.
Reliable
What we promise, we deliver. If something changes, we say so in good time – not when it is too late. For us, a handshake still counts.
Sharing
Knowledge is shared, not hoarded. We involve our clients' teams, explain our decisions and are glad when a project runs without us in the end.
THE FOUNDER

Ing. Daniel Bachner-Lehner, Founder and Managing Director
More than 17 years in international plant engineering – from piping on construction sites and three years of commissioning in the USA to leading plant design and engineering at a major industrial operator. Daniel knows both sides: the planner's and the operator's. And he knows that projects rarely fail because of the technology, but at the interfaces in between.

“Motocross taught me early on: the championship isn't won by whoever is fastest in one race, but by whoever lasts the whole season. That's how I see projects.” – Daniel Bachner-Lehner
A project is like an organism: when information flows, interfaces fit and decisions are made where they have an effect, it runs healthily – without constant stress, without firefighting, without nasty surprises on site.
That is exactly what we take care of. Not with massages, but with clarity, structure and engineering that is thought through all the way to installation. We call it Plant Engineering Wellness.
