Thomas Rüegg

Thomas Rüegg is Team and Project Leader for Supply Engineering. His focus is on operation and safety equipment (BSA) as well as quality and risk management in technical infrastructures. After studying mechanical engineering at the University of Applied Sciences in Rapperswil, Thomas initially worked as a project engineer in large-scale plant construction for steel production. He deepened his business management knowledge with an Executive Master of Public Administration at the PHW University of Applied Sciences in Zurich. His career path eventually led him to Basler & Hofmann via a management position in an SME. Since 2019, he has been contributing his wide-ranging experience in large infrastructure projects, for example as project and construction manager for the Schwamendingen enclosure and as deputy project manager for the Lucerne bypass.

I am fascinated by accompanying unique, large-scale structures from the idea on paper to the functional infrastructure facility.

When a facility that has been planned and built over many years goes into operation for the first time and I see how it works, that is a special moment.
