What Eptisa does

Eptisa Servicios de Ingeniería, S.L. (the "Company") is a privately-held Spanish multinational engineering, architecture and information-technology consultancy founded in 1956 and headquartered in Madrid. The Company delivers end-to-end infrastructure consulting across ten core service lines: Transport (airports, roads, railways, ports, mobility, pavements), Water (treatment plants, dams, hydropower, flood protection, conveyance networks), Energy and Industry (conventional, renewable, oil and gas, manufacturing, environmental consulting), Building and Architecture, Sustainability and Climate Change, Digital Services, Cities and Territories, International Cooperation, Quality Control and Infrastructure Monitoring. Its technology layer combines accredited laboratories with a proprietary digital stack including the Informeslab online platform for real-time materials-test reporting, BIM coordination services, GIS development and the Eptisa Lab innovation hub that incubates emerging monitoring technologies (robotic surveying, GNSS, InSAR, drones, distributed sensors). Certifications include ENAC accreditation under UNE-EN-ISO/IEC 17020 for environmental inspection and registered testing-laboratory status across multiple Spanish autonomous communities.

Eptisa sells professional services on a project-by-project basis through direct enterprise-field sales and competitive bidding. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; engagements are won via tenders issued by multilateral development institutions — European Union, World Bank, African Development Bank, Asian Development Bank, European Investment Bank, AECID — as well as direct contracts with national, regional and municipal governments (e.g., Ministry of Industry of Ethiopia, Buzău and Prahova County Councils in Romania, Istanbul Public Schools) and a small set of private-sector clients (notably AIRBUS Composite Materials). The Company operates through 33 permanent offices in 38+ countries across Europe (Spain, Western Balkans, Romania, Türkiye, Georgia, Ukraine, Greece), Latin America (Chile, Peru, Panama and others), Asia (Vietnam, Bangladesh, India, Philippines, Central Asia) and Africa/Middle East. Distribution is essentially a B2B/government-sales motion led by a regional director model.

Revenue mechanics are anchored on three streams: core engineering consulting (feasibility, design, construction supervision, project management), donor-funded international cooperation technical-assistance mandates, and accredited quality-control and laboratory testing. The Company reports a Cifra de Negocio (business volume) of EUR 100 million with a workforce of 1,000+ professionals and approximately 300+ active projects; ownership remains with founders and management under a Board of Directors chaired by Luis Villarroya and led operationally by CEO Mauricio Gómez Villarino. Strategic positioning is built on a 70-year track record, multilateral-bank preferred-partner status, accredited laboratories and a footprint that few peer consultancies of comparable size can replicate across the same breadth of donor-funded jurisdictions.
