Together, SYSTRA and BG&E will have more than 1,000 employees in Australia and New Zealand, further strengthening their position in one of the world’s most dynamic infrastructure markets. With a comprehensive portfolio of multi-disciplinary engineering services covering the entire project lifecycle, SYSTRA and BG&E will be able to deliver high-quality, sustainable technical solutions to their clients, who will benefit from the best international practice and the continued backing of a global engineering leader. Furthermore, BG&E’s presence in the United Kingdom, Singapore, and the United Arab Emirates will enable SYSTRA Group to strengthen and expand its offering in these countries.
Beyond its geographical footprint, this transaction gives SYSTRA the opportunity to build a global offering in the field of complex buildings. Initially recognised for its design work on transport-related structures (stations, depots, maintenance centres), SYSTRA, thanks to the integration of BG&E’s expertise, now expands its scope to all types of complex buildings. This newly combined network will bring together more than 700 specialists, able to operate anywhere in the world.
"We are delighted to welcome the talented BG&E teams to SYSTRA. Together, we have a unique lever to support the transformation of infrastructure in Australia, New Zealand, and beyond. This partnership reflects our growth ambitions and our aim to be the signature team for engineering in the transport and complex buildings sectors worldwide."
Jean-Charles Vollery, CEO of SYSTRA
"Over the past 55 years of our operations, we have been involved in some of the largest infrastructure and buildings projects in Australia and overseas. Therefore, it made perfect sense to team up with a bold, innovative and technically excellent engineering firm like SYSTRA. Joining SYSTRA is the right cultural and strategic fit for BG&E, enabling us to embark on the next stage of our growth journey."
Frank Cerra, Directeur Général de BG&E
The acquisition comes at a pivotal moment of growth and transformation in the infrastructure sector and underlines SYSTRA and BG&E’s commitment to meeting the evolving needs of their clients and communities.
