Building sustainble solutions for a better world

The BESIX shared purpose is to “Excel in creating sustainable solutions for a better world”. This purpose is our source of inspiration and motivation. Every word in our purpose holds value:

Excel: always strive to improve. We want to make a difference, stand out and achieve excellence.

Creating: we are more than “builders” and “developers”. We need to develop creativity and co-create with our customers, so as to be innovative, evolve and stay in the driver’s seat.

Sustainable: both financially and environmentally. While we need to make profit and plan for regular income sources for the future, we also want to assume social responsibility in a world of sharing and circular economies.

Solutions: customers are not looking for products or services, what they’re really wanting are solutions. To make sure our solutions meet their needs, we need to listen even better to our customers.

Better world: BESIX is keen to play a pivotal role in innovating to protect our planet’s shared resources. Given BESIX’s projects and its presence worldwide, our impact can be significant.

#Our strategy is not a revolution, it’s an evolution. It’s about momentum, building on the great foundations we have in order to fulfill our purpose and outperform the competition.

To incorporate this purpose into our actual business, and to live this purpose in all we do, we have defined 6 strategic drivers:

Leveraging on our customer centricity: it is key for our business to really know our clients, understand their needs and satisfy them to achieve the desired results. Doing this better than our competitors will be a major differentiating aspect.
Promoting a great place to work: our ability to provide a great employee experience in an open community of enthusiastic colleagues is a defining factor in our successes of tomorrow.
Developing “one-stop-shop” solutions: the BESIX Group has unique capabilities and a multiservice offer, meaning we can provide solutions throughout the value chain, from “develop” to “operate and maintain”.
Being a leader in innovation: It is in BESIX Group's culture to promote innovation. The Group develops multiple initiatives in this field. They aim to expose us to new ideas and technologies and in doing so, give us the opportunity to adopt them early.
Synergizing our ways of working: this means ‘working light’ by simplifying and harmonizing our internal processes and communication. This can include common choices of tools, organizational formats and resource allocation across the Group.
Promoting openness towards new ventures and business activities: BESIX Group has been known for decades for its entrepreneurial spirit. We need to continuously explore and to react positively to new opportunities.
