History

A2Z was started by Mr. Amit Mittal in 2002. Initially the group began its operations in facility management, maintaining telecommunications towers for Vodafone India, reliance. Later, in 2008, it entered the engineering, procurement, and construction EPC (contract) business. The EPC business expanded with the acquisition and merger of Sri Eswara Sai Construction Private Limited,[9] a company that installed transmission lines, in January 2008. A2Z later transferred its FMS business to its wholly owned subsidiary, A2Z Infraservices in the same year pursuant to a court-approved scheme of demerger. In August 2009 A2Z acquired Imatek from the same FMS industry.

In May 2010, A2Z's EPC business signed a contract to purchase the entire business of Surendra Choudhary & Brothers, a partnership that constructed electrical substations and did railway electrification work.[10]

They have been involved in engineering maintenance (mechanical, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, DG Set), energy saving solutions, janitorial services, parking management, property lease management, telecommunications tower maintenance and security services to public and private sector clients.[14] A2Z Infraservices was started in 2002, and started and generated a turnover of 29 Lakhs in the first year.

It is the first FMS ISO 9001 certified company, and is ESCO Certified. In 2005 it started in the railway business with South East Central Railway Zone in Bilaspur under the "Clean Train Station (CTS) Scheme".[15] They provide services to the Indian Railways under the Clean Train Station ("CTS") scheme, the Intensive Rake Cleaning ("IRC") scheme and the On-Board Housekeeping Services ("OBHS") scheme in 11 out of 16 railway zones.[16] It has recently acquired Mumbai based company CNCS.

A2Z Infrastructure Limited

This branch has set up one of the largest single-location integrated resource recovery facilities (IRRF) in Asia, as well as setting up one of the first IRRF's with an ESCO focus.

In India, so far, the projects are being done piecemeal. While C&T is done separately by different agencies, P&D is managed by the government through outsourcing model.[18][19][20]
