As an international engineering and construction group specialising in complex buildings, we mainly carry out turnkey projects for the construction, renovation or extension of facilities in the fields of datacenter, critical facilities and cleanrooms.
Our skills are accompanied by a genuine technical expertise, which is fundamental to integrating all the requirements and operating constraints of our clients, particularly the maintenance of the sites on which we work.
OUR PRIORITY
Cap Ingelec has always emphasized the integration of energy-efficient solutions. Thanks to our in-depth know-how and computer thermal-simulation tools, we are able to optimize our designs to achieve the lowest possible energy consumption. We are committed to energy efficiency from the initial launch of each project to their successful completion.
EFFECTIVE
Our in-depth technical know-how includes a specific project management approach that helps us to complete projects in a structured, well-designed manner: comprehension of the requirements, organization, planning, value-engineering, Building Information Modeling (BIM), synthesis, and risk analysis are carefully applied in order to ensure projects optimization and safety.
In addition to the performance of the technical solutions we offer our clients, we are committed to them right up to the project completion stage. This strong commitment translates into performance guarantees that are measured at the time of delivery. This notion of commitment takes on its full meaning in turnkey projects, for which we take overall responsibility for design and construction, providing all the technical, price and deadline guarantees.
The increase in our turnkey projects has only reinforced the importance of digital models. We have entrusted a BIM Manager with the task of leading our technical teams in order to make the most of this technology which facilitates collaborative work and optimizes the intrinsic performance of the projects proposed to our clients. Cap Ingelec works on REVIT like the vast majority of architects and design offices, but also on Solidworks, Archicad or Tekla.
Thus, all the results of each stage of the process are federated in our digital models (energy calculations, heating, air conditioning, aeraulics, location of equipment, alarms and security, etc.). The 3D models presented to our clients are only the emerging part of BIM. The tool also manages internal and external information flows from one end of a project to the other, from its initial design to its operational phase. BIM significantly improves communication between all the internal and external players in a project. It accelerates and makes reliable the transmission of data and allows to go virtually to the smallest details of a site.
Cap Ingelec has chosen to train its technicians in BIM, a detail which is of great importance. This strategic decision was taken to preserve the technical excellence of the company, capable of deploying its professional excellence whatever the technology used. Our BIM Manager, Sylvain, has dual skills. He is both an Arts et Métiers engineer and holds a master’s degree in construction engineering obtained in Montreal. It is in Canada within a BIM services company that he developed his theoretical and practical skills in this specific field. Today, he flourishes in a position where his role is no longer to produce, but to manage thirty or so technicians within a service that has grown considerably in recent years. “Cap Ingelec gave me my chance. The company didn’t wait for me to have 15 years of experience to give me this position”.
BIM at Cap Ingelec has a bright future ahead of it!
The Lean Management approach focuses on the elimination of non-value-added steps and promotes the development of a spirit of continuous progress within companies. This management system has two objectives: to increase the value created for the customer and to improve the company’s performance. Our teams include engineers trained in “GREEN BELT LEAN MANAGEMENT”, which allows them to be “Animators” of work sites or simple workshops for continuous improvement (NFX 06 091 standard) of flows, processes or storage… Our objective is to offer a global support to our customers. The LEAN approach offers us the opportunity to work upstream with the client’s process teams to optimize and improve their flows (men, machines, storage, etc.). Our engineering skills combined with LEAN MANAGEMENT methods enable us to guarantee our customers significant savings: on the building, on production costs and on operating costs.
