INDUSTRIAL PROJECT SUPPORT IN FRANCE

Set up your factory in France with hands-on industrial support.

Setting up manufacturing operations in France requires industrial, organisational, human and financial decisions to be aligned from the outset.

Eclos’up works alongside your leadership and project teams to structure the roadmap, prepare key decisions and guide implementation through to completion.

Our support focuses on the industrial operating model, local organisation, finance and launch coordination.

Target situations

Are you preparing an industrial project in France?

Establishing new manufacturing operations

You are preparing a new production operation in France and need to align the industrial roadmap, organisation, investment requirements and implementation priorities.

Transferring or relocating production

You are moving manufacturing activities to France and need to coordinate production choices, capabilities, financial impacts and the local organisation.

Expanding an existing manufacturing footprint

You are adding capacity or developing a new production unit in France and need a structured roadmap across several interconnected workstreams.

Approach

Set the direction, then guide implementation to completion.

Industrial projects involve interdependent decisions. Eclos’up uses a two-step approach to connect strategic direction with operational implementation.

01 — Le Cap

Assess the situation and build the roadmap.

We review your objectives, constraints and current situation across industrial, organisational, human and financial dimensions.

Together, we clarify priorities, dependencies and trade-offs, then build a realistic roadmap aligned with your decision timeline.

02 — La Conduite

Coordinate delivery and adapt the roadmap.

We work alongside your leadership and project teams to coordinate workstreams, monitor progress, prepare key decisions and adjust priorities as the project develops.

Eclos’up supports management without replacing it.

Areas of support

Four areas of support, coordinated around one industrial project.

Industrial roadmap and production system

We translate your business objectives into an industrial roadmap covering the production model, capacity requirements, ramp-up assumptions, processes, supply chain, quality and performance priorities — drawing on our own network of local industrial suppliers in France.

Local organisation and recruitment

We help define the target organisation, critical roles and skills, recruitment priorities, onboarding and operating routines required for the project. Sector-specific collective bargaining agreements and local labour practices add real complexity for international teams — having navigated them ourselves, we help you anticipate the practical implications early and flag where specialist legal advice is needed.

CAPEX, cash flow and funding requirements

We structure investment scenarios, working-capital and cash-flow impacts, project economics and funding requirements to support decision-making — including French public funding and support schemes, drawing on our network of institutional contacts. Financial and accounting specifics of operating in France are anticipated early, working alongside your accounting advisers.

Implementation coordination and launch preparation

We coordinate workstreams, dependencies, decision points and progress reviews, and help prepare the operational launch.

How we work

One coordinated team alongside yours.

Eclos’up brings together industrial, organisational, human and financial capabilities around the same project.

We work collectively with your leadership and project teams to connect decisions and coordinate implementation, without taking over management responsibility.

Scope of support

A clearly defined scope.

Eclos’up focuses on industrial planning, organisation, finance and implementation coordination.

We do not provide site selection, real-estate search, legal, tax, regulatory, compliance or company-incorporation services — these remain with your company and its specialist advisers.

Where our own experience helps you anticipate French-specific practices — labour law, collective bargaining agreements, local administrative processes — we flag it early, so you engage the right specialist at the right time rather than later and at higher cost.
