ALBERT ET FILS BATIMENT & GÉNIE CIVIL

What ALBERT ET FILS BATIMENT & GÉNIE CIVIL does

Albert & Fils Bâtiment & Génie Civil is a family-owned French construction company headquartered in Montfa, in the Tarn department of Occitanie. Founded in 1969 by Christian Albert as a small artisanal business, it has been led since 2012 by the founder's children — Richard Albert as Président Directeur Général and Séverine Teste as Directrice Générale. The company operates across three service lines: Bâtiment (general building construction across offices, commercial, education, healthcare, residential, industrial, and sports/leisure sectors), Génie Civil with a distinctive specialization in hydroelectric infrastructure (power stations, water intakes, fish passages, water treatment facilities), and Charpente/Couverture (traditional and industrial carpentry, roofing, and zincwork). It also operates a specialized valve engineering, locksmithing, and joinery capability (formerly VSM SO, absorbed in 2024).

The company's core technical capability is grounded in conventional construction execution combined with specialized hydroelectric civil engineering and a proprietary in-house concrete prefabrication unit (Unité de préfabrication béton) at the Zone Artisanale des Fournials site, providing vertical integration for construction elements used in its projects. It holds MASE (Manuel d'Amélioration Sécurité des Entreprises) certification obtained in July 2018 and renewed through July 2028, alongside QUALIBAT quality certification — both relevant qualifiers for French public procurement bidding. The company's revenue model is project-based construction contracting: it generates income primarily through public procurement tenders (marchés publics) with municipalities, departments, public services (e.g., SDIS du Tarn), and public institutions, and through direct private contracts with property developers, industrial clients, and businesses. Project values range from approximately €100,000 to €4.79 million, with public procurement tendering as the primary go-to-market channel and no intermediary distribution. The customer base is diversified across sectors — energy (EDF, SHEM, SHEMA), education (Département du Tarn), entertainment (CGR Cinéma), healthcare (EHPAD facilities), food & beverage (Société des eaux de Mont Roucous, Weishardt), and residential developers — with the company having executed more than 100 projects across Occitanie and adjacent departments including Haute-Garonne, Aude, Aveyron, Lot, and Pyrénées-Atlantiques.
