Shard innovation – we build upon innovation

For us, shared innovation is an attitude of openness and one of listening. Innovation is shared with all our stakeholders. We believe in the strength of cooperating in all phases of a project. We make the effort to ensure that ideas and points of view are able to circulate. It is only through this collective intelligence that our projects gain value.

Our claim to “Shared innovation” links all companies in the Bouygues Construction Group. We want to shape tomorrow’s world together by opening up new horizons together with our employees and our partners for the benefit of our clients, the community and the environment. As a global player, Bouygues Construction uses opportunities offered by advances in technology to constantly modernise its business areas.

“Shared innovation” stands for the approach of searching for new, innovative solutions, processes and working methods, together for and with our customers, partners and employees. We want to break new ground with them. The aim should be to think differently, to question the given and to try something new in order to find the best possible solutions.

Our R&D programmes concentrate on:

• Intelligent power grids and energy storage
• Town management and mobility
• Energy efficiency
• Big Data applications

We encourage initiative across the company, pursue a bottom-up approach and ensure that information about projects is shared across the organisation so that all our clients can benefit from our collective expertise. We make the effort to be pragmatic, flexible and open at all times. Innovation on a management level is a basic prerequisite to drive our company forward, which is why we create a working environment which also promotes creativity and innovation among our employees.
