Bernasconi e Forrer ingegneria e misurazioni SA

Bernasconi and Forrer engineering and measurements SA is a company formed in 2014 by the merger of the engineering firms Maderni Capezzoli Forrer Sagl (founded in 1921) and Gisi and Bernasconi SA (founded in 1971). In 2019, we also integrated the measurement section of the engineering firm Antonio Bottani. Our activity in the canton in the field of surveying, cadastre and rural engineering can thus boast several decades of experience!
 
The current co-owners are Cristiano Bernasconi, Antonio Bottani and Fabio Forrer all engineers who graduated from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich and surveyors registered in the Federal Register of Surveyor Engineers.
 
Today the office employs about 30 people. These are skilled and experienced professionals who work using modern surveying and data processing systems concerning the land. Over many years of activity, the firm has earned the trust of public agencies, cantonal offices, municipalities, consortia, construction companies, engineering firms, architectural firms, and private clients who appreciate our expertise, the quality of our work, and the speed with which we complete the work entrusted to us.
 
The firm recognizes the importance of good training and consequently has always been committed to training apprentices in the field of geomatics (especially cadastral surveying and technical surveying).

• official surveying (cadastre)

• technical surveying (related to construction and infrastructure works)

• spatial management (municipal engineering)
