Case study

How did the Eiffage Group transition to an international management of all its flows with myDiapason?

“Diapason has enabled us to implement a quality treasury. Automation has significantly reduced the time spent on repetitive tasks: none of our treasurers would want to return to the old tool today!”

Project Context with Eiffage

The group wanted to establish a centralized solution for managing the treasuries of its four branches (Eiffage Énergie Systèmes, Eiffage Infrastructure, Eiffage Construction, and the Holding), with the following main objectives:

  • International management capability of all its flows

  • Improved communication with banks (implementation of SWIFTNet)

  • Enhanced security for electronic payment processes

  • Automation of bank power management

Historically, the branches operated in a decentralized manner, using distinct tools and repositories. Financial flows were sent to the Holding, which managed investments and financing. The limitations for the teams were numerous:

  • A TMS tool deployed unevenly within the group

  • A multitude of outdated proprietary tools for managing routine tasks

  • A lack of adaptability to market changes

  • An absence of SWIFT protocol or XML V3 format for international management

  • Functional limitations on automation impacting the productivity of the finance function

  • A technological risk related to the turnover of key teams on the proprietary solution

The Solution Provided by myDiapason

Eiffage selected the TRMS (Treasury and Risk Management System) myDiapason following a call for tenders with 45 highly specific criteria, ranging from the solution’s ergonomics to the development of specific interfaces.

The deployment took place in two phases:

  • The first phase involved banking communication, including payment submissions and the generation of banking powers. The first successful production launch was executed with the Holding as the pilot, followed by the other three branches and deployment in Switzerland.

  • The second phase primarily focused on the TMS, managing daily treasury and financial operations.

  • Lorem ipsum, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod

The Diapason teams understood and adapted to Eiffage’s specific business challenges to propose advanced configurations and conduct the complex work of harmonizing repositories.

“In the construction sector, we have entities in multi-ownership—meaning partnerships between branches or with external actors—but also groupings, GIEs, etc. Diapason accompanied us from design to the development of all our specifics, offering us a fully customized solution.”

Results for the Eiffage Group

In addition to centralizing the international management of the treasuries and flows of its four branches, Eiffage has achieved numerous successes, including:

  • Significant productivity gains. With over 600 signatories within the group, the solution quickly brought substantial benefits, especially through the automation of banking power management. The teams are now better equipped to handle the large volume of correspondence related to account openings, updates, or closures.

  • Quality data and financial reporting. All files and financial flows are centralized in a single tool. Reporting is consolidated at the group level, providing quality treasury position reports.

  • Enhanced security. The solution has adapted to the internal policies of the IT department to address the group’s security challenges. All payment flows are now tracked and secured. The group also has a single communication channel with banks, and the automation of accounting entries reduces the risk of input errors.

The myDiapason tool has convinced the treasurers of the Eiffage group, who are now proactive in proposing new features for further deployment. They want to continue capitalizing on productivity gains generated through better daily treasury management.

The path is now open to make the tool accessible to subsidiaries and signatories in all countries where the group is present.

“The TRMS myDiapason is increasingly converging toward a Group solution with a single instance federating users and all our branches. The number of users is set to accelerate as we are already deploying the tool internationally.”
