Designed to deliver

Skanska exists to build for a better society – and to do so in a way that creates long‑term value for our customers and shareholders. We believe these ambitions reinforce each other, and our business model is designed to deliver on both.

Creating long-term value

A strategy built on purpose

Our purpose – to build for a better society – and our values are the core of our strategy and guide the way we do business. What’s good for people, society and the environment is also good for business.

Our purpose and values

The way we conduct business is firmly grounded in our purpose of building for a better society.

Our business model

Our diversified business model is built to perform across market cycles, balancing risk, returns and capital efficiency over time.

Sustainability and innovation as value creators

For us, sustainability and innovation go hand in hand, and more than half our innovation portfolio is tied to sustainability. This helps customers reduce risk, improve performance and meet their climate goals – while strengthening our competitiveness and long‑term value creation.

Financial discipline and accountable leadership

Long‑term value creation requires more than strong projects. It depends on disciplined financial decisions and clear accountability at every level of the organization. For us, this means combining a robust financial position with a trusted governance model.
