Management of large industrial and infrastructure projects
Today, major infrastructure projects primarily address decarbonization challenges, but also contribute to countries’ energy and industrial independence, European solidarity, and the expansion of transport networks.
Given the stakes of these large-scale projects, which are crucial for their future, our clients must ensure these projects are properly managed and under control. However, internal project management teams, even those with high-potential profiles, are often in high demand. Our customers therefore expect highly committed consultant teams with perspective, who bring methodologies and tools that quickly deliver value.

Among our best stories
RTE – Fécamp offshore wind farm project
PPM / PFM / MIP
“Goes well beyond expectations, very positive impacts on the team.”
— Alexandre I., Fécamp Wind Farm Connection Project Director, RTE
— Alexandre I., Directeur du Projet éolien de raccordement de Fécamp, RTE
The Fécamp offshore wind farm project provides electrical power of approximately 500 MW through its 70 offshore wind turbines for a total investment of €2 billion.
Oresys intervened to establish and facilitate the management system, integrating with the project teams.
The project was managed in a robust, reliable, efficient and integrated manner across planning, budget and risk dimensions. Deviations and variances were identified and addressed through mitigation actions. An opportunity to accelerate the schedule was implemented.
The Fécamp project met the planned delivery dates while respecting the overall budget and annual budget forecasts.
EDF – Hinkley Point Organization mission
Energy & Utilities
PPM / PFM / MIP
EDF’s industrial department intervenes on the construction project of two EPRs in the United Kingdom. Its contributions to the project are very sensitive, particularly given the high stakes involved in the qualityof the equipment manufacturing and of the transition to the assembly phase.
Oresys took part in:
The implementation of a Manufacturing Hub Sharepoint, shared both by several of EDF’s departments and by the final client in order to improve the information exchange and the management documents
Carrying out a diagnosis regarding the organisation of the project industrial department, identifying 5 progress undertakings and framing these undertakings
Conducting some of these undertakings such as improving risk management and building a data visualization system for KPI / activity indicators of the project industrial department using PowerBI
Monthly management committees are considered an added value by the professionals and the Manufacturing Hub is very much appreciated by all players.
