Bilfinger Engineering & Maintenance BeNe, a leading industrial services provider in the Benelux, set out to create a clear and actionable growth strategy across its five business units. Each unit ranging from Engineering to Maintenance and Mechanical had its own priorities, strengths and market dynamics. The management team saw the need to align these into one consolidated strategy that would unlock new opportunities and strengthen collaboration across the region.
Over a short time span, RevelX supported Bilfinger BeNe in designing five actionable growth strategies for the individual business units and in consolidating these into a regional growth plan. Using the RevelX Growth Strategy Canvas, directors and management teams worked in structured workshops to define growth engines, internal enablers and concrete initiatives. The process not only delivered strategy content but also strengthened alignment, accountability and ownership across the leadership team.
“For the first time, we now have a consolidated growth strategy for our region. The process was delivered on time and in line with expectations, and the hands-on support from RevelX was invaluable. Our business units now share a common language and a clear direction to shape their future.”
