Civil Engineering

The construction sector is undergoing profound transformations with the appearance of new issues associated with the environment and safety. Infrastructures require new materials as well as more reliable operating and maintenance systems. Furthermore, the appearance of new actors in the marketplace creates ever-stronger competition. This is one more challenge for companies that have to come up with innovative solutions in order to stand out from the crowd. 
Our experience in the construction trades and our understanding of their challenges enable us to support our clients in formulating and realising cutting-edge technological solutions. The Group’s consultants work in the various areas of expertise and cover the entire life cycle of works, from the design phase to operation by way of the construction phase.

Life Sciences and Environment

Companies in the health and environment sectors are facing unprecedented challenges in an increasingly competitive market. They need to meet the heightened requirements in safety, reliability and performance established by oversight bodies such as the ANSM, the EMEA and the FDA, as well as by consumers.

With many patents expiring, higher and higher R&D costs, the huge influx of generic medicines and pressure from the public authorities to control expenses and tighten regulations, companies in the health-care sector need to intensify their innovation processes while controlling costs as best they can. 
Amaris supports actors in the health-care and environment sectors at every step in their projects, from research and design through the development of products and solutions. We monitor the day-to-day evolution of regulatory constraints and key issues in these sectors so we can design adapted solutions that meet our clients’ needs.

The Telecommunications and media sectors are evolving quickly. Rapid technological advances propel changes in consumer behaviour. Accompanied by increasing competitive pressure, these changes require companies to constantly adjust their strategy in order to win their clients’ loyalty and attract new consumers. 
Amaris supports companies in these sectors in formulating innovative technological or organisational solutions to respond to the opportunities offered by this changing market. We place our expertise at our clients' disposal to help them optimise their operational effectiveness and control costs.

The emergence of environmental concerns has led to the rebirth of the rail industry: nowadays it appears as one of the best ways to solve critical issues related to the transportation of goods and people and its environmental impact. In addition, the strong expansion of heavily populated cities in growth markets like China or Brazil calls for the development of urban rail transportation as an alternative to reduce traffic congestion and reduce the carbon footprint. Infrastructures, train (design and production), telecom and data processing (signalling data), user interface (station kiosks) are some of the many challenges which have to be handled by the industry actors. 
Amaris provides state-of-the-art services to the rail industry. Our consultants operate at all stages of the value chain and in all functional and technical domains, through product engineering (electronics, mechanical, electrical, networks & protocols, embedded systems, mechatronic & controls) and process engineering (project management, quality assurance & control, supply chain & logistics, production management & optimization, RAM/RAMS analysis, certification & homologation).

After a decade of steady growth, the Aerospace & Defence industry faces major challenges. The increasing globalization process, along with complex government regulations, creates more pressure than ever to improve productivity and increase transparency. 
To meet with the growing international demand, and more particularly of China and the South Asian countries, companies have to modernise their fleet and rethink their processes in order to offer customised aircrafts with speed and flexibility. This also calls for a better control of the cost structure, but not to the detriment of environmental concerns and regulations. The defence firms, which face in addition a declining budget environment in many occidental countries, have to reinvent themselves to find efficient solutions and maintain their growth.

Our consultants operate at all stages of the value chain and in all functional and technical domains, through product engineering (electronics, mechanical, electrical, networks & protocols, embedded systems, mechatronic & controls) and process engineering (project management, quality assurance & control, supply chain & logistics, production management & optimization, RAM/RAMS analysis, certification & homologation).

The public sector is modernising and is putting new procedures in place to improve the quality and transparency of the services offered to citizens. The dematerialisation of procedures, simplified access to information and data security are now key issues. 
Amaris supports public-service actors and nongovernmental organisations in implementing their transformations. Backed by global experience in large government projects, we work with these organisations to help them achieve their objectives in terms of modernisation and performance of public service.

The commerce and distribution sector has undergone major changes in the past decade. Given the growth in mass distribution and standardisation of services, customer loyalty has become a major challenge for companies. With the massive use of new information technologies, companies are dealing with an increasingly well-informed and demanding consumer. 
Technological innovations also offer new ways of working, of targeting customers and sharing information all along the logistical chain. The exponential growth in e-commerce has given rise to immense possibilities for the large-scale distribution sector but requires an approach of constant innovation. 
Aware of these challenges, the Amaris Group supports the leading actors in commerce and distribution in developing innovative solutions aimed at better meeting consumers’ expectations.

The current economic context is driving actors in the banking and insurance sector to fine-tune their offers, their organisations and their information systems. These changes are intended to return to growth while winning back clients’ trust. 
As part of this reorganisation, companies are attaching special importance to governance, risk management, information system safety, and regulatory compliance (Financial Security Code, SOX, Basel II, HIPAA). 
Amaris supports its clients throughout their operational transformation projects. With our recognised know-how in supporting change and our specialised familiarity with the sector, we are able to propose complete solutions adapted to the constraints of these companies

The automotive industry is an increasingly complex marketplace that faces new and pressing challenges. The traditional actors have to deal with a strong globalization process and address critical issues: individualisation, digitalisation and increased competition. 
Establishing a presence in growth markets, generating value and revenue from new drive technologies like electric drives, reinforcing partnerships (relation between OEMs and non-automotive companies) and the control over the supply chain (OEMS and car part manufacturers) are key drivers to success. Companies have also to focus on safety requirements and environmental commitments to find new ways to create value and prosper in the future. In order to create more value, technological innovations (vehicle performance, comfort and safety) must be associated to process innovations to improve quality, cost and deadlines. 

Amaris provides state-of-the-art services to the automotive industry. Our consultants operate at all stages of the value chain and in all functional and technical domains, through product engineering (electronics, mechanical, electrical, networks & protocols, embedded systems, mechatronic & controls) and process engineering (project management, quality assurance & control, supply chain & logistics, production management & optimization, RAM/RAMS analysis, certification & homologation).

The main challenges facing manufacturers include the supply of raw materials, innovation and the constant evolution in client needs. To meet these demands, manufacturers need to improve their cost structure, optimise their distribution network and adapt their organisation to market fluctuations.
