Mission & Goals
EFCA’s mission is to promote the European engineering consultancy industry on a European level and to represent it to the European institutions. As experts in our field, we work to influence EU legislation on matters that affect our industry, helping us to achieve common European goals such as the promotion of fair competition and transparent procurement rules. EFCA also provides a dynamic networking platform for its member associations and firms to meet and share experiences, as well as establishing partnerships and alliances with other interest groups.

Additional Information
EFCA represents the consulting engineering sector and all our activities are related to this work. However, some costs are directly related to lobbying (personnel, preparation of related position papers, answering consultations, Committee preparatory work, publications, etc.) and some are indirect costs, associated with managing the federation (building rental, office expenses, insurance, maintenance etc.) The split is around 62% direct costs and 38% indirect costs. In 2025, this was around 395,000 euros direct costs and around 243,200 in indirect costs. To be clear, the organisation is a federation, the primary reason for which is representation. In other words, EFCA would not exist without this function and the indirect costs are obviously essential to running the federation.
