Business Area

Explanation:
Nei siti di un esercizio di pubblica utilità come Amga, AdB indica le Aree di Business in cui è suddivisa l'azienda.

Purtroppo ho internet con un difetto che mi impedisce di riportare il link del sito, ma ti allego qui sotto il brano da cui l'informazione è tratta.

Gli investimenti effettuati da AMGA in termini di risorse umane sono, quindi, sempre più concentrati
nel settore amministrativo e commerciale, con sviluppo futuro nell’ambito gestionale.
La tipologia di business porta comunque ad avere una struttura organizzativa con un’alta concentrazione
delle forze lavorative nell’area tecnica e nelle aree di business.

It was not obvious for you if you were not thinking of it. What matters? I made the effort for you.

Siemens AdB

Explanation:
Adrien de Backer founded AdB in 1920. The company is now called Siemens AdB. Pauley, from your description of what the company does, maybe this could be it. Here's one of many links:

Or maybe I'm completely off-track.
