1870 to 1918
In the 1870s, the building industry in Bremen was subject to the building deputation , in which three senators were members. The building deputation had five departments for general building administration, building construction, road construction, road construction and hydraulic engineering. The highest technical authority was the building department, which was headed by the senior building director and which had a building inspector as a representative and a builder “as an unskilled worker”. The processing of projects was the matter of several building inspections subordinate to the chief building director. Around 1900 there were building inspections (also called building departments) for building construction, road construction and sewerage, dyke and path construction, hydraulic engineering as well as for free districts [= free port] and wooden port in Bremen, for port construction in Bremerhaven and for the Weser correction of the Lower Weser . In 1876 seven building inspectors, four engineers and 17 building supervisors were employed for this purpose. In 1899 there were eight building inspectors, 32 builders and engineers and 60 building supervisors and draftsmen. In 1899, 11.66 million marks were spent on construction.
The reorganization of the building industry on June 10, 1870 is the founding date of the Building Inspectorate and thus the Building Department in Bremen. Further reorganizations followed in 1974, which the Bremen citizenship approved.
In 1875 Ludwig Franzius became senior construction director; he was mainly responsible for correcting the Weser .
The first building inspector at the Bremen Building Inspectorate was Heinrich Flügel from 1874 to 1899 .
Building inspector and from 1901 building officer Hugo Weber became head of the building inspection in 1899.
In 1907, the Senate announced that two new construction directors for building construction and civil engineering (civil engineering) would be hired to relieve the senior construction director. The former cathedral master builder Ernst Ehrhardt headed the building construction division as construction director since 1908 . The two building inspections were subordinate to him.
The building construction should now be carried out in two departments, namely for general state buildings (administration, justice, elementary schools) and for health care, higher education, other educational purposes and technical buildings. An increase in staff led to 29 employees in the 1st building inspection (general administration and on the left of the Weser) and 25 employees in the 2nd building inspection (on the right of the Weser). Head of the II. Building Inspection and the II. HBA was then building officer , later building director Wilhelm Knop.
According to the minutes of the Senate of February 28, 1913, the names were changed from
- Building Inspection I. and II. In Building Construction Office I. and II.
- Civil engineering inspection I. to III. in road construction office I. and II. as well as canal construction office.
The other five inspections were also renamed offices.

Otto Freese was the chief building director of the UBA; later University Building Authority Bremen (HSBA).

Almstadt headed the office until 1987. In 1976, both offices together held max. 356 (HBA 250 + HSBA 106) employees and in 1985 around 280 employees.
1975 was the structural highlight of both offices, which built 250 million DM and managed 490 million DM in funds; In 1980 the investment volume was 150 million DM and 300 million DM were managed. After that, the construction activity steadily decreased and in 1986 79 million DM were spent on 73 buildings.
Since 1979, the office has been divided into seven departments: two for new construction and construction maintenance, two for building services and their maintenance, two for general and technical administration and one for basic planning.
Repeated conversions
From the beginning of 1994 the HBA became a commercial enterprise and then an own enterprise of the city . After management consultancies ( McKinsey ) at the end of the 1990s, it became the Bremen construction company (BBB).
At the beginning of 2002, the company building and technology management (GTM) was newly founded with the task of carrying out construction maintenance for the buildings of the Bremen administrative property. At the same time, the department responsible for federal construction came from the Senator for Finance to the Senator for Building and Environment, and the BBB also carried out federal projects. Furthermore, the planning tasks of the former company BREKOM for communications technology (formerly Telecommunications Office - FTA) were assigned to the BBB.
On January 1, 2004, the BBB was dissolved again. The staff from the BBB was u. a. for Building and Technology Management (GTM), for the Gesellschaft für Bremer Immobilien (GBI) and for geographic information . Before that, Bremer Baumanagement GmbH had already merged into the Gesellschaft für Bremer Immobilien mbH (GBI)
The Eigenbetriebe TechnikManagement Bremen (GTM) merged with Facility Management Bremen GmbH (FMB) and Gesellschaft für Bremer Immobilien mbH (GBI) (formerly Bremen property office ) in 2009 into the newly created Immobilien Bremen (IB) company; an institution under public law and central service provider for Bremen.
