    OLUTIONS The partner you can trust to design your Bus Rapid Transit line BUS RAPID TRANSIT, A SUSTAINABLE SMART SOLUTION FOR URBAN MOBILITY The socio-economic development of cities is directly linked to the ease of access to education, public services, work and leisure. An efficient public transportation system is one of the main structuring elements of connection between residential neighbourhoods and points of interest of the population. Thus, a high-quality public transport system is an essential element for the development of large urban centres. Modern and high-performance, BRT systems could combine the flexibility of a bus with the benefits offered by semi-dedicated or dedicated corridor transportation. BRT could be synonym of highly efficient transportation mode: with up-to-date intelligent transport systems (ITS) on board and in station providing services to passengers (accurate information flexible fare payment), station levelled with vehicles enabling comfortable and fast boarding faster. The solutions developed by our team result in a power efficient system, based on the use of high technology, reducing congestion and CO2 emissions.

  • Paris, 7 April 2016 FINANCIAL RESULTS – MID-WAY
    Paris, 7 April 2016 FINANCIAL RESULTS – MID-WAY THROUGH ITS STRATEGIC PLAN, SYSTRA CONFIRMS GROWTH WITH REVENUE UP 18% SYSTRA “Mid-way through the SYSTRA 2018 plan, our results confirm our ambitions: to double our revenue, Ebit and headcount within five years. Thanks to the dedication of all our teams, SYSTRA is financially sound and has a well-filled order book. We have everything we need to continue expanding and remain a leader in the design of guided transport infrastructures,” says Pierre Verzat, Chairman of the Executive Board. Growth in our results, in line with our growth plan Although the global economic environment remains tense, SYSTRA's results continue to grow. The Group generated revenue of €623 million, up 18% in relation to 2014. EBIT also grew by 18% to €25.5 million, however it did not quite reach the initial target due to difficulties in certain economies. Parallel to this healthy financial situation, the order book remains at a high level at almost €1 billion. The Group's international expansion is speeding up: 55% of revenue from outside of France France, the Middle East and Asia account for 76% of the Group's revenue and today are the main sources of SYSTRA's activity. For the first time since the merger in 2011, the Group's international activities represent 55% of revenue. Since 2014, SYSTRA has been ramping up its presence on key markets, underpinned by a strategy of targeted acquisitions. After acquiring SAI in India in 2014, SYSTRA forged ahead with the integration of two companies in 2015: TECTRAN in Brazil and JMP Consultants in the UK.
