Business groups

Pöyry reorganised its business structure to better align its new vision, meet the demands of the global megatrends and leverage the existing core competences.

ENERGY

The world needs more energy, which calls for sustainable solutions through improved efficiency and renewable energy solutions. These are huge challenges, where new technologies are playing a vital role. This business group focuses its operations in the areas of hydropower, renewable energy, thermal power, nuclear energy and transmission and distribution. The business group already has a strong position, especially in the European energy market.

A clear future focus for the Energy business group is on projects and technologies that help improve energy efficiency and mitigate environmental impacts in a sustainable way. The business group will also continue to increase its participation in larger projects and more encompassing deliveries such as EPCM and EPC.

INDUSTRY

Industrialisation has been a main creator of wealth and lifestyle improvement. It will continue to be a major area of growth, but it will need to adapt to new sustainability requirements. The Forest Industry business group was renamed as Industry business group. The business group will maintain its strong core in the forest industry and wants to maintain its global market leadership in the pulp and paper sector. In addition, it will accelerate its expansion into other areas of industrial processes and facilities such as chemicals.

The Industry business group will invest in the development of a more complete offering covering resources such as biomass, biofuels and biomass based chemicals.

URBAN & MOBILITY

As the world is more and more urbanised, the challenge is to ensure that the world is sustainable by providing efficient transportation and green buildings. To meet this converging market, Transportation and Construction Services were merged into a new business group Urban & Mobility. With this integration, Pöyry aims to strengthen its ability to respond to the increasing need for solutions driven by population growth and urbanisation, in areas such as urban development, real estate development, transport planning, rail and road infrastructure, construction management and building design using the global platforms of this business group.

WATER & ENVIRONMENT

Water is one of the most critical issues facing the world and one that directly impacts health, food and livelihood. Here, too, the world faces huge challenges. The Water & Environment business group will spearhead Pöyry's vision to become a leading service provider for the entire water cycle and to mitigate environmental degradation.

Water & Environment will focus on water supply and sanitation, water resources management, geosciences and environmental services and consulting.

MANAGEMENT CONSULTING

The Management Consulting business group was formed by merging the management consulting businesses in the Forest Industry and Energy business groups. They currently employ around 450 management consultants in total. The target is to double the size of the business in about five years and to expand management consulting services into areas that have synergies with the rest of the Pöyry group. The business group has a strong link to our engineering as part of the total offering.

The integrated management consulting business group has stronger critical mass and is therefore better able to deploy and leverage the knowledge, boost our presence in key markets, continue to attract top talent and gain access to higher margin assignments.
