Stephan Schurmann - Welcome to the personal home page of Stephan (Steve) Schurmann, CEO of PowerConcrete Building Technologies Inc.
Stephan (Steve) Schurmann, CEO leads the global operations of PowerConcrete® Building Technologies Inc. and 21st Equity HomesManufacturing Inc.
Mr. Schurmann founded 21st Equity Homes Manufacturing Inc. in 2006 and became a globalsupplier of precast concrete machinery and equipment from Germany under their own private label as well asofficial Mandate Holder & supplier of Portland Cement for clients around the world.
Stephan Schurmann began his career in the construction industry many years ago in Germany where he learned the craft of stonemasonry and where he learned the techniques of indestructible concrete construction. His added expertise of more than 15 years in international banking and being a company formation specialist for a global client base enables Mr. Schurmann to create financing and capital solutions for the benefits of his corporate and Government clients.
After almost four years of "ups and downs" as a broker of high tech machinery and equipment for turnkey precast concrete plants, Stephan Schurmann made the decision to purchase a Master Franchise for USA from a company in Manila, Philippines in 2010, promoting a permanent concrete formwork under the brand "Plaswall".
Unfortunately, it was discovered that the franchisor from Manila (Mark Taylor) involved himself in "shady money transactions" and offered our company NO support or responsibility as franchisor. Stephan Schurmann was threatened by the corrupt franchisor on every occasion to "revoke" his master franchise, even though Stephan Schurmann brought this money laundering franchisor more than $1,750,000 in business transactions to the table!
After months of "power games" with the franchisor, Stephan Schurmann finally discovered that the Plaswall franchise rights he purchased for $1,500,000 from Mark Taylor where NOT patentable in USA and above all they still had no sign of any franchise support from Mark Taylor. Stephan Schurmann had painfully realized at that point that he made a "wrong business decision" and decided to resign in July 2011 as master franchisee for USA.
Mr. Schurmann lost more than $750,000 in franchise fees and commissions to Mark Taylor but could not continue under the questionable business practices of his franchisor. To make things worse, few days after his resignation as the Plaswall master franchisee for USA, his Ex-Franchisor officially "declared across the Internet" that Stephan Schurmann is a scam artist.
Ironically, just prior to Stephan Schurmann's resignation, he was regarded as an invaluable company asset. His Ex-Franchisor, Mark Taylor then decided to slander Stephan Schurmann'sintegrity and harm his newly established company, PowerConcrete Inc., which is based on far higher ethical standards.
Stephan Schurmann's Ex-Franchisor even went so far as to encourage other Franchisees to call more than 900 business relationships he had established in the USA, trying to blackmail Mr. Schurmann and his credibility. The entire smear campaign went into EXTORTION where Mark Taylor and his character assassin associate "Richard Waters - a Nigerian Crook" tried to extort money and property from Mr. Schurmann. All these "terrorist techniques" have been used to EXTORT from Mr. Schurmann and PowerConcrete Inc. the domain name www.plaswall.us. These extortion techniques even went even so far that Mr. Schurmann received "friendly emails" under FAKE ID's from Richard Waters and Mark Taylor in which he was requested to PAY MONEY to repair his reputation!
Regardless of all these low level attacks, Stephan Schurmann and his excellent team bonded together and became stronger by showing their transparency, integrity and honesty in all their business transactions.
These low ball attacks from his Ex-Franchisor have been just another evidence and reaffirmation that Mr. Schurmann made the right decision when resigning from his corrupt Franchisor and turned the loss of their personal money he left on the table into a very positive learning experience.
Two years prior to his resignation as Plaswall Master Franchisee for USA, Stephan Schurmannhad registered a Trademark "POWERCEMENT®" for his Portland Cement supply, and "POWERCONCRETE®", which became the stepping stone for Mr. Schurmann's current company
PowerConcrete® Building Technologies Inc. (http://www.powerconcrete.us)
Under this new brand, Mr. Schurmann established his first PowerConcrete® manufacturing plant in Alabama, USA in 2011 and registered four different U.S. Patents for their PowerConcrete® and PowerBoard™ Building System. At that time, interest rates were very high, banks were reluctant to lend home builders any money and construction costs were escalating rapidly due to inflation and U.S. debt concerns. Stephan Schurmann founded the firm with the goal of focusing on well planned and executed projects as well as INTEREST FREE capital solutions for home buyers.
Using German construction management processes and engineering as well as very creative capital solutions, the firm developed a clientele who appreciated the benefits of good design and the accelerated construction periods as well as financing programs that PowerConcrete® construction project management provided. Controlling cost, time and managing risk became the trademark of PowerConcrete® Inc. Since then, Mr. Schurmann has continued to expand the firm's capabilities and capacity, expanding services, and markets and surrounding himself with honest Christian people including the most talented collection of financing experts, design professionals, architects, engineers and luxury home builders in the industry.
As a frequent world traveler (85 countries so far), a water and snow skier and father of their wonderful 4 year old son SEAN, Mr. Schurmann enjoys boating, motor bikes, home construction projects and chasing Sean around the playground as he rides on his Quad Bike.
As a loving and responsible father, it is Mr. Schurmann's mission to teach his son Sean highly ethical and honest behavior based on Christian principles and the words of God through Joel Osteen, which are the foundation to create a great Legacy for Sean and all family members of our great PowerConcrete® Dream Team.
"Little Sean" (an aspiring entrepreneur) has been able to join his "Daddy" already in various business meetings as well as Church presentations, where Mr. Schurmann shared his vision of helping families in need with low cost affordable PowerConcrete® homes and interest free loans without a credit check.
The various meetings Stephan Schurmann and his team had with several Mayors, Pastors, Church and Community Leaders, confirmed what we all have believed in our heart from the start; that the calling on our life and the PowerConcrete® Dream Team is supernatural and can never be fulfilled by human efforts alone but by the Power of God who is working through us!
Mr. Schurmann has experience in many building systems and gives his customers tailor made solutions to their challenges. His 15 years of experience in international banking combined with 10 years of experience in the German construction industry gives Stephan Schurmann invaluable insight in large projects with varying degrees of complexity. Even though PowerConcrete® Building Technologies Inc. is a "startup" company, Steve and his "DREAM TEAM" have been able to secure various Community Development projects and sold five master licenses overseas.
Steve's ability to use imaginative as well as creative capital solutions, including INTEREST FREE LOANS and Joint Venture Agreements with land owners, and Municipality Payment Programs, which allows Governments to pay with Government Bonds and the Establishment of Community Development Trusts for Affordable Housing Developments, gives his company the advantage of developing their planned projects seamlessly with no outgoings or hassle where they otherwise would not be able to do so.
Based on Steve's background in precast concrete plant setups he is now able to establish turnkey POWERCONCRETE™ home manufacturing plants worldwide, provide equipment, know-how, training, full back-up support to supply and together with his DREAM TEAM build PowerConcrete™ manufactured Villa's in a Box and other DREAM VILLA's as well as turnkey, sustainable and solar powered communities utilizing the patent pending POWERCONCRETE™ building system.
Utilizing God's Given Talents:
When we stand before God at the end of our lives, we would hope that we would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say:
"I used everything you gave me"
