Profile

VINCI Concessions’ expertise in design, financing, construction, operations and maintenance makes it the preferred partner of public authorities in France and abroad for development of transport infrastructure and public facilities.

Outlook

The major successes of 2010, combined with the large number of contracts won in earlier years and now under construction, point to a year of intense activity for VINCI Concessions in 2011.

Most very large transport infrastructure and public facilities projects now take the form of PPPs, and VINCI Concessions will continue to be the flagship for VINCI’s ambitions in this area. Its strategy seeks both to strengthen its positions in the European markets where it is already present and to set its sights on new horizons, especially in North America and other countries where the Group can lever the experience gained by its Contracting divisions.

VINCI Concessions plans to follow the same pragmatic, measured approach in diversifying its business portfolio. It will build on its well-established positions in road and parking infrastructure to expand into railways and airports, as well as major public facilities such as sports arenas. The recent, and increasingly large, projects won in each of these segments are milestones in this direction. This strategy will embrace both greenfield and brownfield projects, depending on the circumstances.

VINCI Concessions will simultaneously pursue its drive to improve the performance of the infrastructure it operates, through productivity gains, more aggressive marketing, and the development of new services, as VINCI Park has abundantly illustrated.

In the longer term, VINCI Concessions is fully aligned with the powerful trends at work in its markets. The growing importance of mobility issues and increasing urbanisation will create tremendous demand for new and upgraded infrastructure, leading to increasingly large and complex projects. By combining the size and financial strength of the VINCI Group with its capacity to deploy a full range of skills as a concession company, investor, builder, operator and service provider, VINCI Concessions will enjoy a decisive competitive advantage.
