Feasibility engagement

Equans typically engages at feasibility through to delivery on bundled schemes; offers separable feasibility-only contracts for LA and MAT clients.

Why this matters

Equans is the de facto market leader for public-sector PSDS delivery. The Bouygues-backed consolidation of public-sector ESCO share strengthens that position as delivery shifts to the post-PSDS funding routes.
