Case Study Bouygues Group
Kantar helps Bouygues Group by delivering accurate campaign performance intelligence to enable better decision making.
Pierre Auberger, Communication Director, Bouygues Group“Monitoring requires high standards, precision and strong responsiveness. Kantar’s work quality reflects our own work quality. Even if we receive 99% of the information, adding the final 1% can make all the difference. The vast majority of Kantar’s work is delivered on time, but we keep vigilant as it could be the final 1% which is key to understanding the whole story, and our goal is to anticipate any challenge.”

Regular analysis reports are augmented by an annual quantitative overview which offers new perspectives on performance and the media trends most relevant to Bouygues.

  1. Quantitative trends over time, to compare media impact year-on-year.
  2. Shifts in media interest in Bouygues’ key business sectors and operating subsidiaries,
  3. Sentiment to measure media responses to campaigns and corporate engagement, and
  4. Emerging themes in media reporting and the key reputation drivers of reputation risk and success

Impact

Thanks to our analysis, Bouygues gains an objective understanding of its performance and the wider media environment. For example; the context of media discussion and the impact opinion has on the company’s reputation, the media outlets most relevant to Bouygues, the opinion leaders.
