I wonder if they mean ...

Explanation:
... built environment (a common term in the trade which literally means "gebaute Umwelt" or "gebaute Umgebung")

Perhaps they mean "unter den Marktführern im weltweiten Bausektor".
Is there any context to go with this naked sentence?

Thanks for the context. It seems to confirm my hunch. You'll have to juggle the sentence structure to fit the figures in (although you would have had to do that anyway, "$11bn" as an adjective doesn't go well into German), but your client certainly claims to be a big time supplier in the building industry.
