Egis contributes to the development and life of a project: consultancy advice, studies, design work, setting up public-private partnerships, project management, works supervision, long-term operation, etc.
Egis relies on its three core businesses:
- infrastructure and systems engineering and design
- setting up public-private partnership projects or concession projects
- operating infrastructure facilities
From local engineering to managing large complex or technical projects, Egis can satisfy all the needs of local authorities and large contracting clients.
It can adapt its services to satisfy perpetually changing public demands worldwide. Through its regional and international locations it can respond directly to the expectations of its clients, taking their human, economic and environmental context into consideration.
In 2009, Egis announced the creation of an alliance with Iosis, specialised in building and civil nuclear engineering, to launch a new global engineering offer to their French and international clients. Both groups form now the French leader in construction engineering.
