At its meeting of 5 November 2021, the Engie Board of Directors decided to sign a purchase agreement allowing Bouygues to acquire Equans. With sales of €12.5 billion and 74,000 employees, Equans operates in 17 countries in a large number of high growth potential sectors: electrical engineering, HVAC, refrigeration, mechanical engineering, robotics, digital and telecoms networks and facilities management. It works through recognised brands such as Ineo, Axima and Fabricom. This is both a large-scale and future-shaping deal for Bouygues – the biggest ever carried out by the Group – and will see it move up to a completely different level.
We are going to create a sixth business segment around Equans by drawing on the know-how and the very good match between the Group’s Energies and Services arm and Equans. The new entity will become the largest business segment within the Bouygues group by sales (€16 billion) and number of employees (around 96,000). For more information, you can find the memo here.

The aim of the Annual Performance Discussions is to encourage balanced, quality exchanges between Bouygues Construction managers and employees. Essential to our employees’ career development and future planning, these discussions are about trust, simplicity, teamwork and the pioneering spirit. 

From 5 January to 31 March 2023, over 30,000 annual interviews will be conducted with the Global HR tool, including more than 5,000 with workers across France. 
  
These discussions can be prepared with the help of a flyer published for this purpose, also available in ByLearn. This feedback on an experience with CPI tells you more about the new workers’ Annual Performance Discussions. There are also Annual Performance Discussions memo sheets and guides for all staff and managers, as well as an FAQ section, all available on ByLearn.   

Don’t forget to make a note of these performance discussions in your diary!
