1977

NIER was founded in 1977 – in the form of a cooperative – on the initiative of three recent graduates (Francesco Bernardi, Duilio Gennari and Paolo Vestrucci) and an established technician (Giovanni Zappellini). Energy and nuclear risk analysis were its two initial areas of activity.

1980

In the 1980s, issues relating to environmental protection emerged forcefully in Europe and Italy: environmental analyses, resource management, major industrial and natural risks were first topics of study and research and then consolidated activities.

1990

At the beginning of the 1990s, NIER became an LLC, with a partial change in the corporate basis. Experiences on corporate management systems, process analysis, organization of emergencies, reliability and occupational safety are consolidated as culturally relevant elements for development.

2000

Occupational safety, in the integrated meaning of HSE (Health, Safety & Environment), was a driving force in the first decade of the new century, along with system engineering, nuclear, O&G, railways and other sectors. In 2002 NIER became an SpA, and in 2003 a new operational office opened in Milan.

2008

With the 2008 crisis, which strongly influenced the following years, a period of new challenges also began: the decade of sustainability and interconnection.

2012

NIER moved to new offices in Castel Maggiore; new spaces and a more functional structure enabled the start of a general reorganisation process, which began by better defining the competencies and the corporate structure.

2020

In 2020 the areas that define NIER’s fields of intervention have become 4: Systems Engineering, Sustainability, Occupational Safety and Software Engineering.
The unifying horizon of NIER’s action is integral sustainability.
The operational offices have increased: now there is also Naples (2017).

2024

NIER becomes a Benefit Company. A responsibility that we want to demonstrate in facts.

The challenge of present .

In a world that is increasingly a “global village” and in the context of the current “change of era” with its countless and dramatic crises, the demand for integral sustainability emerges forcefully. Everything is connected and connections must be sought, recognized and infra-structured.

The technical consultancy that NIER offers acts with a view to integral sustainability. NIER supports its customers to contribute to the redefinition of interconnections through innovation, methodologies and technologies.

Integral sustainability – articulated in Systems Engineering, Sustainability, Occupational Safety and Software Engineering – defines the scope of NIER’s specific contribution to the great transformation of this time. This is where the payoff comes from: making change happen – making life better.

Mission & vision .

The positivity of reality is the native principle of NIER.

This principle implies the willingness to accept challenges: new, challenging and beautiful problems to solve, complex problems that perhaps we would not like to have, small and large changes that continually question the status quo, new technologies, globalization, economic crises .
Two fundamental points of NIER’s mission follow from the judgment on the positivity of reality: the desire to be useful and the idea of doing more, to contribute to the emergence of this positivity.

Skills, professionalism, efficiency, interconnection, overall vision are necessary conditions to do this.
Being useful and doing more puts the Customer at the center: he is the recipient of our work and we would be meaningless without him.

This is a crucial point: NIER does not want to be just a group of professionals capable of solving problems, but a partner company of its customers, through a team full of professionalism and skills.
This is why NIER intends to be a medium-sized technical consultancy company, capable of offering personalized, complex and quality services, at competitive costs.

Growing and internationalizing is a commitment made to maintain these characteristics in such a rapidly changing context.
