What SINTRA - une société EGIS does

SINTRA is a regional operating entity of Egis, the French international consulting, engineering, and infrastructure operations group headquartered in Guyancourt, France. SINTRA itself is based in Bouc-Bel-Air (Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region), founded in 1995, with 11-50 employees, and operates as part of Egis's broader franchise delivering infrastructure services in southern France. The wider Egis group employs 23,500 professionals across 70+ countries and serves government agencies, infrastructure operators, utilities, and private enterprises with end-to-end services spanning consulting, design, engineering, project management, infrastructure operations, and smart mobility.

The group's core service portfolio includes consultancy and advisory, design and engineering, programme and project management, infrastructure management (operating 6,898 km of roads, 143 km of tunnels, and 18 airports across 5 continents), and digital engineering. Underlying technology platforms include Building Information Modeling (BIM, used in 75% of design projects with a target of 90% by 2025), Digital Twin virtual replicas, IoT-based real-time monitoring, AI-enabled infrastructure failure detection, cybersecurity services (including a Center of Excellence with Cylus for railway security), and 3D printing innovation projects (YHNOVA construction printing, Seaboost coral reef restoration, Landboost urban biodiversity). Sub-brands include Easytrip (road user services and tolling in 30+ countries managing 2.5M+ active devices and €900M in annual transactions), Moovia (urban mobility in 40+ European cities), Scancar (parking enforcement), 10Design (architecture), and CycleUp (circular economy).

Revenue is generated primarily through project-based professional services (consulting, engineering, design, project management) billed under multi-year contracts, complemented by managed services revenue from PPP infrastructure operations and concession management, and transaction-fee revenue from smart mobility services (tolling, parking). Customers are predominantly government and public-sector entities, including transport authorities, infrastructure operators, water and sanitation utilities, and energy companies, alongside long-tenured enterprise clients in nuclear energy and transportation. The company pursues direct enterprise sales through local offices across 70+ countries, leveraging its global network to win competitive bids and PPP concessions, while sustainability-linked financing instruments (e.g., the Sustainability-Linked Loan used for the 2024 McIntosh Perry acquisition) reflect integration of ESG commitments into its financing structure.
