which represents 58% of the Group’s
revenue;
●
Energy & Infrastructure
which represents 34% of the Group’s revenue;
●

Global Product Solutions (GPS)
, specialising in outsourced research
and development on behalf of industrial customers working mainly
in the Aerospace and Automotive sectors, operates throughout the
product life cycle: from functional analysis to commissioning,
via
design,
industrialisation and management of the supplier chain.
Energy & Infrastructure (E&I)
brings value to industrialists, utilities and
contractors in nuclear, conventional energy, transport infrastructure, life
sciences and other complex infrastructures, from its experience acquired
thanks to a long history in the nuclear industry, and in infrastructure
engineering in complex environments and/or with stringent safety
requirements.
The
Staffing
division provides the Oil & Gas sector and other major
industrialists with specialist consultants mainly in the Middle East, Africa
and Asia.
The Group focuses its development efforts on its GPS and E&I divisions.
For these two divisions, the strategy put in place consists of:
●
combining organic and external growth in a balanced way;
●
consolidating the internationalisation of its business activities;
●
developing new services for the existing customer base which it
also expands, in particular by acquiring additional skills by hiring
employees and/or acquiring companies with these skills;
●
ensuring the competitiveness of customer offerings through an
appropriate mix of resources based in Western Europe and elsewhere
in the world.
