[edit] Company history

Ernest Gouïn founded Ernest Gouïn & Cie in 1846. It laster became Société de Construction des Batignolles, SCB. Meanwhile, the Société Parisienne pour l’Industrie des Chemins de Fer et des Tramways Electriques was founded and became, in 1900 under the directorship of Edouard Empain, Société Parisienne pour l’Industrie Electrique, SPIE

As early as 1954, SPIE acquired part of the SCB's capital and in 1968 merged to form Spie Batignolles.

During the 1970s and 1980s Spie Batignolles acquired several other companies. In 1972, it acquired Compagnie industrielle de Travaux, CITRA. In 1977, Canalisations Pétrolifères, Aquifères et Gazières, CAPAG and in 1982, Travaux Industriels pour l’Electricité, TRINDEL.

The 1990s brought several waves of restructuration. In 1990, Spie Batignolles created Spie Construction, the building and civil engineering branch of the company. In 1992, Spie Construction merged with CITRA to become SPIE CITRA.

In 1997 the company was bought by its employees with help of the British part of the group, AMEC, who became a shareholder. A year later, Spie Batignolles changed its name to SPIE with its three daughter companies becoming Spie Trindel, Spie Enertrans and Spie Batignolles. On 1 July 2003, Spie as a whole was purchsed by AMEC. As part of the company's strategic plan, 78 senior managers took control of Spie by a LMBO on 5 September 2003 with the support of Barclays Bank Equity France.

On 22 June 2004, Financière Spie batignolles purchased the shares owned by Amec Spie.
