What Artelia does

Artelia is an international, employee-owned multidisciplinary engineering consulting and project management group headquartered in Saint-Ouen-sur-Seine, France. The firm delivers consulting, technical expertise, and project management across five business sectors — Mobility, Water, Energy, Buildings, and Industry — operating through wholly-owned subsidiaries (Artelia Italia, Artelia UK, FNX-INNOV, LCI, Pick Everard, ADP Ingénierie, MTC, Castons, Erregi, HNIT, ProjektPlan, SMC, SPRETEC) and sub-brands including Artelia Advisory, Artelia Digital Solutions, and Artelia People Solutions. Its technical differentiators include proprietary probabilistic methods for sea-level rise adaptation, integrated coastal management assessments, sediment dynamics modeling using drone-monitored digital morphodynamic models, and complex flood-prevention numerical modeling across river and maritime domains. Notable marquee projects include consultancy on Emirates' $5.1 billion engineering mega-complex at Dubai South, climate adaptation strategy for Port Réunion, and coastal protection feasibility studies under the World Bank-funded WACA program in West Africa.

The company is 100% owned by its managers and employees with no external shareholders, a structure the firm positions as a source of independence and long-term orientation. Go-to-market is B2B enterprise sales pursued via direct outreach and RFP responses to government ministries, port authorities, regional authorities, industrial operators, and private developers; pricing is custom and project-based with no public price list. Distribution relies on a 40+ country subsidiary and branch network supporting cross-border project delivery, evidenced by 28,000+ projects executed in 2024. Reported 2023 turnover was €983 million (+18% year-over-year) with operating profit of €52.3 million (+21%), and the combined entity with FNX-INNOV was disclosed at over $1.3 billion in sales. Headcount has scaled to approximately 11,000 professionals globally, with sustained inorganic growth through acquisitions in Canada, the UK, France, Germany, Iceland, Italy, and Australia between 2022 and 2024.

The firm is ranked among the top 15 European engineering companies and holds ISO 27001, CyberVadis Silver, EcoVadis Gold (84/100, top 2% of 150,000 companies), UN Global Compact membership (since 2018), and Science Based Targets initiative commitments. Recent strategic actions include the July 2023 acquisition of FNX-INNOV as the North American platform, the October 2024 acquisition of Pick Everard (UK) for £70 million, the acquisition of ADP Ingénierie from Groupe ADP for airport sector depth, the 2023 establishment of the AugmentIA research chair in AI-enhanced engineering with the Grenoble INP Foundation, and the adoption of a new organizational structure effective 1 January 2026 focused on growth, impact, and profitability.
