It has managed to retain many customers who have detected an effective tool to serve their objectives at a very early stage.” Thanks to selective recruitment, a strong service culture and rigorous management, MEOTEC’s business model has proven its robustness in the face of ups and downs, cycles, and market downturns. It has also made its mark in the various professions the firm practices in, from PPM to Purchasing, from logistics to management control, from quality to IT project management. Finally, the company attracts both young and experienced managers who find demanding projects in a variety of environments to develop their skills.

The proposal of three modes of intervention: • In consulting for the realization of diagnoses and the formulation of recommendations to improve the performance of customers on MEOTEC’s trades. • In operational assistance to strengthen customers’ operational system with the contribution of a competent, equipped and committed team. • In outsourcing or BPO to take charge of all or part of a client’s operations, whether in a “project platform” organization, service center, or even on a time-sharing basis. “Our business model had proved its robustness; all we must do now is to deploy this solution in other places around the world. It can mean other cities in countries we are already exist such as Strasbourg, Bordeaux, Toulouse in France, or in new countries such as Canada, Germany, Morocco, Luxembourg, or the Netherlands.” The year 2021 saw MEOTEC reach maturity levels and Richard explains that it has now entered a stabilization mode in both revenue and growth. The main objective for the firm now is to stay true to its expertise but to diversify its source of income around the world meaning that France will only count as 40% of the overall revenue. “Meotec is like a family, I still remember the days it used to be a baby, then when it learned to walk on its own,” enthuses Richard as he elaborates on his journey to success. “I even remember the time when it went through the adolescence crises in 2012/2013 where we had fast growth and change and needed order and maturity.” Now, the firm’s focus for the future is to attain a critical consultant number of 1,000 and Richard’s plan involves reaching this target before 2025 purely based on organic growth, however with external growth thrown into the mix Richard foresees this number being attained in much less time.
