Sound infrastructure is the core of any development project. Whether you are extending or rehabilitating road networks, building healthcare or education facilities, upgrading housing schemes or planning urban development, the infrastructure that you lay down is vital for economic and social development.

Efficient, safe and environmentally sustainable infrastructure

We have close to 40 years of well-grounded experience in taking constructions projects from preliminary design to successful handover. Our teams work with national administrations, executive agencies, district organisations and local authorities to develop, manage and maintain infrastructure.

Our services go beyond the physical structures to address the professional, social and financial components of each project.

For example, we:

  • provide vocational and teacher training adapted to the needs of your local and regional labour markets.
  • work with community-based organisations in participatory planning and implementation.
  • assist clients with procurement of equipment, works and services.
  • protect your investments and the public benefit in force account works.

Looking for a specialist in rural zones and secondary towns?

We have rock-hard experience in rural road projects. Computer-assisted road inventories, rural road schemes, small contractor capacity development and labour intensive construction programmes are just some of the specialist services that we provide to our clients in Africa, Asia and the Pacific, Latin America and Eastern Europe.

Decentralisation and economic growth are creating new development opportunities and needs for secondary towns. We assist clients (national ministries, regional administrations) in planning, rehabilitating and constructing major or teaching hospitals, in developing industrial or commercial areas, and with emergency reconstruction programmes.
