AMS Anlagen-Montagen-Service GmbH ("AMS") is a medium-sized service company founded in 1993 that performs mechanical maintenance and repairs, maintenance tasks and fluid services for industrial plants throughout Europe. The company's customers include lignite and hard coal-fired power plants, cement and lime works, waste incineration plants, refuse derived fuel plants and opencast mines. Due to an age succession, the founder and managing partner of the company Claus-Dieter Ahnert turned to CARL. Due to the energy turnaround and the resulting high level of uncertainty in the industry, the positioning of the company in the process and the accompanying equity story had to be precisely worked out.
