Our Mission
Our Vision
Global Presence
Social Responsibility
Our Parent Company
Our mission is to help businesses prioritise their projects, and give project controls and risk management the attention they deserve. Project success is rarely random.
Projects must be approached in a strategic way - with the right tasks and right interventions undertaken at the right time - to drive optimal results. At the end of the day, that’s all there is to it. So we’re on a mission to throw out the gimmicks, get rid of the political battles, and remove this idea that box-ticking is the secret to success.
We want to see businesses make decisions using straightforward outputs. Simple.
At Safran, we envision a future where we’re all able to work collaboratively within the project controls community, using the latest technologies to facilitate efficient planning and precision execution of even the world’s most complex projects.
We have a vision that organisations will embrace world-class technologies and be open to implementing powerful, modern solutions that can help them succeed.
With four international offices across Europe and the USA, and clients across every continent, Safran delivers local expertise on a global scale.
From our strategic locations in the USA, UK, Norway and Sweden, we’re able to offer outstanding support over the phone and in the cloud.
Our consultants and partners stand ready around the world to deliver strategic guidance, in-person or remote training and expert assistance whenever, and wherever you need it.
Safran is comitted to being socially responsible. Please contact us if you wish to know more.
