Dear Sir or Madam,
1.      On 22 December 2021, the European Commission received notification of a proposed
        concentration pursuant to Article 4 of the Merger Regulation by which the
        undertaking SPIE Nederland B.V. (‘SPIE’, The Netherlands) acquires within the
        meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Merger Regulation sole control of the whole of the
        undertaking Strukton Services B.V. (‘Strukton Services’, The Netherlands), belonging
        to Strukton Groep N.V, by way of purchase of shares.3
2.      The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:
              for SPIE: the provision of multi-technical services in the areas of energy and
                 communications,
              for Strukton Services: the management and maintenance of buildings in the
                 Netherlands.
3.      After examination of the notification, the European Commission has concluded that
        the notified operation falls within the scope of the Merger Regulation and of
1       OJ L 24, 29.1.2004, p. 1 (the ‘Merger Regulation’). With effect from 1 December 2009, the Treaty on
        the Functioning of the European Union (‘TFEU’) has introduced certain changes, such as the
        replacement of ‘Community’ by ‘Union’ and ‘common market’ by ‘internal market’. The terminology
        of the TFEU will be used throughout this decision.
