ARCHIMBAUD TP

What ARCHIMBAUD TP does

ARCHIMBAUD TP is a French family-owned public works contractor founded in 1990 by Hélène and Bernard Archimbaud, headquartered in Décines-Charpieu in the eastern Lyon metropolitan area. The company delivers a comprehensive suite of external construction services including demolition, terrassement (earthmoving), assainissement (sanitation), voirie et réseaux divers (VRD — roadwork and utility networks), aménagements extérieurs (exterior development), marquage au sol (ground marking), and equipment rental with operator. It serves four primary customer segments: enterprises (commercial and industrial clients), régies (public and property management entities), individual homeowners (particuliers), and public markets (marchés publics) through competitive tendering in the Rhône department and neighboring areas. The company employs approximately 18-20 core professionals, expandable to 30 through its June 2022 subsidiary AS TP, and operates a 50km service radius around Lyon with a dedicated fleet of Mecalac excavators, semi-trailers, and a wholly-owned recycling platform called RECYCLA 69 in Bron.

The company's business model is project-based service delivery, with quotes provided per project based on scope, materials, and duration. Revenue is generated through three streams: public works service contracts (professional services), equipment rental with operator (leveraging owned fleet assets), and inter-site equipment transport services. Customer acquisition combines direct field sales to enterprises and public administrations, public tender responses for government contracts, and inbound quote requests through the website. The company has a documented customer roster of more than 30 named clients including major national contractors (Bouygues Construction, Bouygues Bâtiment Sud Est, Eiffage Construction, SPIE Batignolles, Nexity), institutional clients (Ville de Décines, Olympique Lyonnais, Régie Carron), and retail/property names (Leclerc Meyzieu, Foncia, Oralia). Marketing is primarily through Facebook, LinkedIn, and the company website.

Corporate ownership remained within the family through a 2018 generational transition, with Marlène and Florian Archimbaud taking over as Co-Gérants. The company has no external investors, no parent company, and no public listing. RECYCLA 69 operates as a wholly-owned recycling subsidiary enabling circular-economy material flow, while AS TP (created June 2022 with Florian Archimbaud and Bastien Sirot) is a jointly-controlled subsidiary focused on public works in the western Rhône region. Operational commitments include 100+ m² of photovoltaic panels, one hybrid vehicle, and three beehives, alongside active participation in professional networks such as BTP Rhône Jeunes Dirigeants and Femmes Dirigeantes BTP.

Others

• Kiloutou: Major French equipment rental firm offering machines with operators for public works and construction. Overlaps with ARCHIMBAUD's rental service but at a national footprint across France.
• Loxam: France and Europe's largest equipment rental company with operator services for construction, earthworks, and public works. Directly comparable to ARCHIMBAUD's 'location d'engins avec chauffeur' line, but as a national rental specialist rather than a TP prime contractor.

Direct peers

• Cardem: Eiffage's dedicated demolition and deconstruction subsidiary. Directly comparable to ARCHIMBAUD's demolition service line, particularly on urban and industrial demolition requiring specialized equipment and material sorting.
• Demathieu Bard: Independent French construction group active in public works, civil engineering, and earthworks across France. Closely comparable integrated TP service model with a similar multi-disciplinary footprint.
• NGE: French multi-specialist contractor offering earthworks, VRD, demolition, and environmental services across France. Closest direct competitor in scope of the integrated TP service mix, including material recycling.

Broad incumbents

• Eurovia: Vinci subsidiary specializing in transport infrastructure, urban development, and material recycling. Strongly comparable to ARCHIMBAUD on road/utility networks and material recovery, but as part of a global group.
• Eiffage Construction: Major French construction group with substantial public works, road, and earthworks divisions operating widely in Rhône-Alpes. Overlaps with ARCHIMBAUD on TP services but at far greater scale and as part of a diversified national group.
• Bouygues Construction: Major French general contractor with TP divisions across France and internationally. Direct enterprise customer of ARCHIMBAUD for VRD and infrastructure subcontracts; comparable end markets at far greater scale.
• SPIE Batignolles: French construction group active in civil engineering, foundations, and public works. Cited as a customer of ARCHIMBAUD via VRD/infrastructure collaboration; comparable service portfolio but far larger scale.
• Colas: Bouygues subsidiary and global leader in road construction and infrastructure. Direct overlap with ARCHIMBAUD on VRD, paving, and ground marking (marquage au sol), but at vastly larger scale across France and internationally.
