Broad incumbents

• Egis: Major French engineering group operating across building, infrastructure, transport, and energy. Offers construction economics, technical engineering, and project management as part of a much broader portfolio, including majority stake in Burgeap.
• Setec: French engineering group with building, infrastructure, and industrial practices. Setec Bâtiment and setec its among its entities offer thermal, fluid, and construction-economics consulting services comparable to ICEGEM's.
• AIA Life Designers: Architectural-engineering group combining architecture with embedded BET services (économie, fluides, thermique, SSI) on healthcare, education, sports, and hospitality projects — overlapping ICEGEM's sector portfolio and service model.
• Artelia: Large French engineering consultancy (post-merge with Coteba) covering construction economics, MEP engineering, project management, and urban development. Competes with ICEGEM on large private and public tenders but with substantially broader services and geographic reach.

Direct peers

• Ingérop: French independent engineering group (BET) offering multi-disciplinary construction engineering, infrastructure, and project management. Highly comparable operating model to ICEGEM across construction economics, fluid engineering, and project coordination.
• Burgeap: French engineering consultancy (Egis subsidiary) providing construction and environmental engineering services, including BET-style deliverables (économie, fluides, thermique) to public and private clients across France.
• Oteis: French independent BET delivering construction economics, structural and fluid engineering, SSI coordination, and project management across building and infrastructure sectors — directly overlapping ICEGEM's six service lines.
• Gester: Independent French BET specialized in building engineering — construction economics, MEP/fluid studies, environmental and thermal engineering — with comparable mid-size independent BET positioning to ICEGEM.
• Cabinet Merlin: Independent French BET delivering fluid engineering, structural engineering, VRD, and project management for building and infrastructure — comparable scope and similar independent-BET competitive positioning.
• Verdi Ingénierie: Independent French BET providing integrated construction engineering (économie, thermique, fluides, structure, VRD) with comparable discipline breadth and a similar mixed public-private client base.
