Institute for Innovative Technologies GmbH (ITA GmbH)

Institut für Innovative Technologien GmbH — commonly shortened to ITA GmbH — is a German engineering and consultancy firm headquartered in Köthen (Anhalt) in the state of Saxony-Anhalt. It was founded in May 1993 as an independent company and technology centre by Prof. Dr. Detlef Deininger. The firm positions itself as a cross-company occupational-safety service provider (überbetrieblicher sicherheitstechnischer Dienst) under § 19 of the German Occupational Safety Act (Arbeitssicherheitsgesetz, ASiG), supplying external safety engineers to small and medium-sized enterprises that must meet their safety obligations under § 6 ASiG and DGUV Vorschrift 2. ITA GmbH's service portfolio spans occupational safety, plant safety, emission control and explosion protection. The company prepares hazard assessments (Gefährdungsanalysen) required by the Occupational Safety Act and by the Hazardous Substances Ordinance and the Industrial Safety Ordinance. It also provides fire-protection documentation, including escape and rescue plans, fire-service plans, fire-service route cards and fire-protection regulations, prepared in line with standards such as DIN 14095, DIN 14675 and DIN 14096. As a notified expert (bekannt gegebener Sachverständiger) under § 29b of the Federal Immission Control Act (BImSchG), the firm is involved in the preparation and review of safety reports and internal alarm and emergency-response plans under the Major Accidents Ordinance (StörfallV, 12th BImSchG). The company is certified to DIN EN ISO 9001:2015 and is a member of the Verband Deutscher Sicherheitsingenieure e.V. (VDSI), the German association of safety engineers. Its managing directors are Dipl.-Ing. Ralf Woiwode and Thomas Eisenburger. Dipl.-Ing. Wilfried Häckel is named as the contact for safety reports and emergency plans in the firm's role as a notified expert. ITA GmbH serves clients primarily in Germany, with a focus on small and medium-sized businesses that lack in-house safety-engineering capacity. As a privately held GmbH, ITA GmbH is not listed on a stock exchange. Its business is built on long-standing practical experience across its fields of activity, and it operates as an external service provider rather than as a manufacturer of physical products. Its brand identity is tied to regulatory compliance, engineering expertise and safety documentation for industrial and commercial sites.

Institut für Innovative Technologien GmbH was founded in May 1993 in Köthen, Saxony-Anhalt, as an independent company and technology centre by Prof. Dr. Detlef Deininger. The firm was established in the eastern German state of Saxony-Anhalt shortly after German reunification, a period in which industrial and regulatory structures in the region were being reorganised. From its base in Köthen, ITA GmbH developed into a cross-company occupational-safety service provider (überbetrieblicher sicherheitstechnischer Dienst) under § 19 of the German Occupational Safety Act (Arbeitssicherheitsgesetz, ASiG). In this role, the company supplies external safety engineers to small and medium-sized enterprises that must fulfil safety obligations under § 6 ASiG and DGUV Vorschrift 2. Over time, its service portfolio expanded beyond core occupational safety into plant safety, emission control and explosion protection. The firm prepares hazard assessments required by the Occupational Safety Act and by the Hazardous Substances Ordinance and the Industrial Safety Ordinance. ITA GmbH also built a practice in fire-protection documentation, producing escape and rescue plans, fire-service plans, fire-service route cards and fire-protection regulations in accordance with standards such as DIN 14095, DIN 14675 and DIN 14096. As a notified expert (bekannt gegebener Sachverständiger) under § 29b of the Federal Immission Control Act (BImSchG), the company became involved in the preparation and review of safety reports and internal alarm and emergency-response plans under the Major Accidents Ordinance (StörfallV, 12th BImSchG). The company is certified to DIN EN ISO 9001:2015 and is a member of the Verband Deutscher Sicherheitsingenieure e.V. (VDSI). Its managing directors are Dipl.-Ing. Ralf Woiwode and Thomas Eisenburger, and Dipl.-Ing. Wilfried Häckel is named as the contact for safety reports and emergency plans in the firm's role as a notified expert. ITA GmbH continues to operate as a privately held GmbH headquartered in Köthen, serving clients primarily in Germany.
