Activities in over sixty countries
IED operates in over sixty countries in Africa and Asia.
Head office
Established in Francheville in the Lyon region, the group's head office includes various experts and employees who work with the teams that are located in the field (subsidiaries, local offices, international consultants), as well as the company's senior management team and administrative and support staff.
The IED Group
IED's international presence either directly in the countries where it carries out most of its work or nearby is in line with the group's development policy and means it benefits from first-hand knowledge of local issues.
When projects are to be carried out over an extended period of time, IED sets up project management offices on location to handle the technical and administrative management of the projects and ensure clients and donors have local access to company representatives.
This presence in the field means the IED group's expertise is always based on local realities and sound knowledge of the sociological and contractual environments specific to each country.

Partnerships
In most of the countries where IED has worked, we have developed partnerships with local consulting firms or colleagues. As a result, we are able to respond quickly to any requests, with knowledge of local contexts and challenges. We also have staff members based locally, ready to get to work quickly. These countries include Laos, Ethiopia, Senegal, Morocco, Mali, Kenya and Indonesia.
