After this integration, the BBS GmbH – as all its subsidiaries, branches and joint-ventures – operates since May 2006 under the umbrella
of the Bilfinger Berger Power Services (BBPS GmbH). [4]

In addition to the GmbH is a number of subsidiaries belonging to the Group. The main companies are Steinmüller, Babcock Noell and Babcock Borsig Power Holding. [5]
