What ICCGSA - Ingenieros Civiles y Contratistas Generales S.A. does

ICCGSA (Ingenieros Civiles y Contratistas Generales S.A.) is a Peruvian engineering and construction group founded in May 1965 and headquartered in San Isidro, Lima. The company executes large-scale civil works across four primary service lines: infrastructure (roads, highways, bridges, hydraulic works, energy projects, maritime and port works, and sanitation); building construction (hospitals, educational facilities, residential, industrial, and commercial); road conservation and maintenance across national corridors; and infrastructure concessions under public-private partnership (APP) schemes, including the flagship Telecabinas Kuélap cable car system operated with French partner POMA.

Revenue is generated predominantly through fixed-price and unit-price contracts won via competitive public procurement (licitaciones) with national, regional, and municipal government entities, supplemented by direct contracts with private mining companies such as Chinalco, Hudbay, Las Bambas/Xstrata, Enersur, and energy/infrastructure firms such as Lima Airport Partners/Bechtel. Distribution relies on government relationships, consortium structures with peer construction firms (CONCAR, INCOT, Kukova, Corporación Mayo), and industry presence at PERUMIN, EXCON, and PDAC. The 2015 corporate restructuring divided operations between ICCGSA Constructora (core construction) and ICCGSA Inversiones, a holding entity for non-construction subsidiaries including Valora (real estate), Grúas e Izajes (crane rental joint venture), ICCGSA Agroindustrial, Uvas del Norte (table grape exports), and ICCGSA Forestal.

As of July 2018, ICCGSA is in concurso preventivo (bankruptcy reorganization) before INDECOPI, and in early 2019 the company was publicly linked to the Club de la Construcción corruption investigation, with the Judiciary considering 18-month preventive detention against Executive President Fernando Castillo Dibós. Headcount stands at approximately 674 employees, with the most recent disclosed revenue of US$264 million (2013) materially below the company's stated 2015 target of US$528 million.

Revenue model

1. Construction Services: One-time project-based construction and engineering contracts, including infrastructure works (roads, highways, bridges, hydraulic works), buildings (hospitals, educational, residential, industrial, commercial), port/maritime works, and road conservation. Revenue is generated from fixed-price or unit-price contracts with government agencies (Provías Nacional, regional governments, municipalities) and private sector clients (mining companies, energy firms, real estate developers).
2. Infrastructure Concessions: Participation in public-private partnership (APP) infrastructure projects under concession schemes, including toll roads, cable car systems (Telecabinas Kuélap), and managed corridor services. Revenue is generated over the concession period through tolls, service fees, or government service payments.
3. Real Estate Development (Valora): ICCGSA group subsidiary Valora Desarrollos Inmobiliarios Peruanos develops residential housing projects (Paseo Victoria, Plaza Santiago) sold to individual buyers, generating one-time revenue per unit sold.
4. Crane and Heavy Equipment Rental (Grúas e Izajes): Rental of high-tonnage cranes (Liebherr brand) to companies across various economic sectors, generating recurring rental income under long-term service agreements.
5. Agroindustrial Operations: ICCGSA Agroindustrial and Uvas del Norte operate agricultural production and export businesses in Olmos and Piura, growing grapes, avocados, asparagus, corn, and cotton for export markets. Revenue is generated from the sale of agricultural commodities.
6. Forestry (ICCGSA Forestal): Commercial tree cultivation on 1,052 hectares in Puerto Inca, Huánuco, with reforestation services. First commercial harvest projected around 2021, representing a future revenue stream.

Direct peers

• COSAPI: Leading Peruvian construction and engineering firm listed on the Lima Stock Exchange, active in industrial, mining, infrastructure and building projects. Closely comparable in customer mix and project types.
• JJC Contratistas Generales: Major Peruvian general contractor executing road, highway, hydraulic, and building works nationwide. Directly competes with ICCGSA on regional government tenders and concession-related civil works.
• Obrainsa: Peruvian construction company with significant road and highway infrastructure portfolio. Comparable in scale, customer base (regional and national government), and project types.
• Aenza (formerly Graña y Montero): Largest Peruvian engineering and construction group, with operations in infrastructure, concessions, and real estate. Direct competitor for Peruvian public works and PPP tenders, and historically the #1 firm in the same top-5 ranking as ICCGSA.

Broad incumbents

• Mota-Engil: Portuguese multinational with significant Latin American infrastructure operations in roads, concessions, and mining services. Comparable as a diversified civil engineering group with PPP experience.
• Sacyr: Spanish infrastructure and concessions group with active LatAm toll-road concessions. Comparable as a global PPP/concessions player; less direct overlap but same concession-led model ICCGSA is pursuing via Telecabinas Kuéllap.
• Andrade Gutiérrez: Large Brazilian engineering and construction conglomerate with Latin American operations, including mining infrastructure and concessions. Comparable in heavy civil construction capability though operating across a broader geography.
• Odebrecht (Novonor): Brazilian engineering group that previously dominated Latin American public infrastructure (and was at the center of the Lava Jato/Corruption scandal that triggered Peru's broader anti-corruption investigations including the 'Club de la Construcción'). Highly relevant as a comparable precedent for large LatAm construction firms facing corruption-driven restructurings.

Regional players

• Besalco: Chilean construction and engineering firm with mining services and infrastructure concessions across South America. Comparable in business mix and customer overlap with mining majors operating in the Andes.
• Inmobiliaria y Constructora PYC: Peruvian real estate developer and construction firm. Overlaps with ICCGSA's Valora subsidiary and competes in the Lima residential housing segment.
