Our areas of intervention
We operate in all technical specialities of the construction industry.
​
Our different experiences, the cases handled to date, and our agility have led us to work in the following different sectors:
​
Hydraulic works | Metal construction | Energy and electricity production (nuclear, hydraulic, WWTP, gas turbine) | Building | Transport | Engineering structure and civil engineering | Road and utilities | Mechanical assembly | Industrial piping
About us
Claims and dispute issues in the construction industry arise from the convergence of contractual and technical complexities.
​
In addition to these complexities, there is a recurring imbalance between mastered technical knowledge and misplaced trust during all contractual phases due to poorly mastered contract law. We believe that it is only by improving the level of knowledge and understanding of the links between contract and technical system that one can build real trust between the parties. This is the foundation of our work philosophy.
