Etude Conseil Ingenierie

What Etude Conseil Ingenierie does

Etude Conseil Ingénierie (ECI), legally registered as ECI Neyton Ingénierie, is a French technical engineering consultancy (bureau d'études techniques) founded in 2005 and headquartered in Voiron, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. The firm designs heating, cooling, ventilation, plumbing (sanitary), and electrical systems for construction projects across three primary segments: industrial, tertiary (commercial), and residential. Its specialization in renewable energy — including wood/biomass heating, geothermal systems, and solar (photovoltaic and thermal) — combined with certifications in BBC Effinergie+, BBC Rénovation, HQE, NF Logements, Habitat Environnement, and Minergie, positions ECI to bid on energy-efficient and sustainable building projects.

ECI operates as a regional professional services firm with 1-10 employees, executing project-based engineering studies on a fee-for-service basis. The firm serves construction project owners (maîtres d'ouvrage), architects, and developers primarily across the Grenoble metropolitan area and surrounding regions. Notable references include the Hotel de la Cry Megeve (a Four Seasons luxury hotel), Böllhoff Otalu industrial facilities, Tencate/Eurocoptère defense manufacturing, CIC bank branches, and multiple residential developments (L'Arboréal, Résidence Le Zénith, La Girandière du Vercors). Revenue is generated through negotiated project fees tied to scope and complexity, with no publicly disclosed pricing tiers.

The firm is a member of the ICARE network, a strategic alliance (GIE) of four complementary Grenoble-area engineering firms — High-B-Tech, Sixième Sens Ingénierie, ECI, and Clima Tech — that collectively offer integrated thermal, energy, and electrical engineering services for larger-scale projects. This partnership extends ECI's effective capacity beyond its small headcount, enabling participation in projects of greater scope than a standalone 1-10 person firm could typically service. The company maintains a basic web presence (eci-bet.com) and relies primarily on direct engagement, referral, and network-based business development rather than formal marketing channels.

Direct peers

• Elithis: French engineering firm specializing in energy-efficient and positive-energy building design. Comparable niche focus on BBC/HQE-certified, low-energy construction with renewable systems.
• Betflu: Independent French MEP/fluids engineering bureau (bureau d'études fluides). Closely comparable small consultancy providing HVAC, plumbing, and electrical design for construction projects.
• Alterea: French engineering consultancy specialized in building energy performance, HVAC, and renewable integration. Comparable because of overlapping MEP/fluids design expertise and energy-efficiency focus across residential, tertiary, and industrial projects.
• High-B-Tech: Grenoble-based sister firm within the ICARE network, providing thermal/energy engineering services alongside ECI. Direct peer because of identical MEP design consultancy profile and shared ICARE GIE partnership.
• Clima Tech: Fourth member of the ICARE GIE, providing climate and thermal engineering services. Directly comparable small French HVAC engineering consultancy sharing the ICARE delivery model with ECI.
• Sixième Sens Ingénierie: ICARE network partner offering complementary engineering services in the Grenoble area. Comparable as a same-region, same-business-model MEP/thermal engineering bureau.

Broad incumbents

• Ingérop: Major French engineering consultancy with national footprint and broad infrastructure, building, and energy practice. Overlaps with ECI in MEP/thermal engineering but at much larger scale and broader scope.
• Ginger CEBTP: Established French engineering and construction-materials group providing building engineering, energy, and infrastructure services. Comparable in HVAC/thermal engineering services to ECI, but with national presence and broader portfolio.
• Egis: International French-origin engineering group with significant building-services and energy practices. Overlaps with ECI in MEP design for buildings and renewable energy integration, but with substantially larger scale and global reach.
• Artelia: Large multi-disciplinary French engineering group with building, energy, and environment divisions. Competitor in MEP and sustainable-building design, serving similar end markets but at significantly greater scale.
