Cracking the Workplace Discipline Code Main.pptxWorkforce Group
Cultivating and maintaining discipline within teams is a critical differentiator for successful organisations.
Forward-thinking leaders and business managers understand the impact that discipline has on organisational success. A disciplined workforce operates with clarity, focus, and a shared understanding of expectations, ultimately driving better results, optimising productivity, and facilitating seamless collaboration.
Although discipline is not a one-size-fits-all approach, it can help create a work environment that encourages personal growth and accountability rather than solely relying on punitive measures.
In this deck, you will learn the significance of workplace discipline for organisational success. You’ll also learn
• Four (4) workplace discipline methods you should consider
• The best and most practical approach to implementing workplace discipline.
• Three (3) key tips to maintain a disciplined workplace.
Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).

1. Introduction
Ferrovial is a constantly changing company that has successfully faced
challenges, overcome difficulties and taken calculated risks to
continuously grow and gain strength, with the result that it is now a
leading global operator of infrastructure and cities, with 65,000
employees and a presence in 25 countries, most notably in five
geographies: Spain, the US, the UK, Canada and Poland.
Ferrovial was founded by entrepreneur Rafael del Pino y Moreno in 1952.
The company's name derives from the Spanish word for railway, and the
company originally focused on railway projects: it was created to execute
a contract to mortise wooden rail ties for Renfe, the Spanish railway
company, to enable the track to be bolted on.
In 1958, the company expanded into constructing waterworks, roads and
buildings.
Ten years later it achieved a milestone: the construction of the Bilbao-
Behobia toll road, a project which initially seemed disproportionate given
the size of the company. This mountain road posed a double challenge:
from a technical standpoint, due to the complexity of its civil engineering,
and from a financial standpoint, due to the sizeable investment required.
Ferrovial rose to the challenge. In addition to building and maintaining the
Bilbao-Behobia road, the company also took charge of managing it. As a
result, Ferrovial extended the scope of its activities to include toll road
concessions, a novel sector at the time that ended up playing a vital role
in the company's future.
Towards the end of the 1970s, Ferrovial decided to explore opportunities
in other countries. The company focused on road construction in Libya as
its first venture outside Spain. It built 700 kilometres of new roads there,
a project which accounted for more than one-third of its revenues.
In the 1980s, the company was one of the key players in building the
network of highways and accesses to Spain's big cities, and in expanding

and modernizing the ports, airports and railways, as well as building new
schools and hospitals.
Over the course of the decade, the company was awarded contracts to
build several sections of high-speed railway between Madrid and Seville
and other infrastructure for the Olympic Games in Barcelona and the
Universal Exposition of Seville in 1992.
In 1985, Ferrovial acquired Cadagua, an engineering company specialised
in designing, building and operating drinking water and sewage treatment
plants. Today Cadagua operates not only in Spain, but also in the Middle
East, India, Poland and Mexico.
In 1995, Ferrovial achieved another major milestone: the Agroman
acquisition. The transaction doubled Ferrovial's size, making it one of the
largest construction companies in Spain.
In the mid-1990s, Ferrovial internationalised its toll road business, which
was already well-established based on several notable contracts in Spain,
including the Autopista del Sol. After entering Colombia and Chile, the
company created a subsidiary that has since undertaken its entire toll
road business: Cintra. And, in 1999, that company obtained one of its
most important contracts: the 407 ETR, a Canadian toll road, under a 99-
year concession—a transaction that catapulted Ferrovial to the major
league worldwide.
In 1999, Ferrovial made another great leap forward with its IPO. The shift
from a family business to a listed company provided Ferrovial with
financial resources and notable recognition in the markets, which were
both necessary for launching the diversification strategy in subsequent
years.
Ferrovial began operating in Poland in 2000, when it acquired control of
Budimex, Poland's largest construction group in terms of revenues and
market capitalisation.
In 2003, Ferrovial decided to strengthen its position in the services sector
by acquiring Amey, a UK company involved in services, transport
infrastructure and social and environmental services. Amey was in a
delicate financial position at the time; under Ferrovial's management, it
has become a leading company in its sector in the UK.
Also in 2003, slightly after this transaction, Ferrovial acquired Cespa, a
municipal and environmental services company. With the acquisition of
Amey in the US and Cespa in Spain, Ferrovial Services achieved both size
and visibility in the space of a few months.
The 2005 acquisition of Texas construction company Webber confirmed
Ferrovial's intention of strengthening its foothold in the United States, a
market it had entered months earlier when Cintra was awarded the
Chicago Skyway toll road concession. Shortly thereafter, it obtained the
SH130, North Tarrant Express and LBJ toll road contracts, all of them in
Texas. Cintra will manage the latter two concessions through an
innovative managed lanes model: barrier-free electronic tolled lanes with

dynamic pricing depending on traffic conditions at any given time.
In 2006, Ferrovial Aeropuertos acquired BAA, today Heathrow Airport
Holdings. It was one of the most ambitious investments ever undertaken
by a Spanish company. As a result, Ferrovial took over management of
seven airports in the UK: Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Southampton,
Aberdeen, Glasgow and Edinburgh, as well as those in Naples and
Budapest, which it later sold. Following a decision by the UK Competition
Commission, Ferrovial sold Gatwick, Edinburgh and Stansted airports.
During its more than 60-year history, Ferrovial has remained true to its
values: efficacy, talent, innovation and internationalisation. These are the
principles that have guided the company since inception and explain why
Ferrovial is now an international leader in airports, toll roads, construction
and services.

2. Services
Ferrovial Services is an international leader in efficiently delivering
municipal and environmental services and maintaining infrastructure. It
offers a wide catalogue of innovative solutions to diverse public and
private sector clients under a whole-life asset management approach.
With a footprint in over 150 major cities and a diversified backlog,
revenues amounted to 3.656 billion euro, up 26.5% compared with the
previous year.
Ferrovial Services is a leader in the UK as well as in Spain, where it
provides services in cities such as Madrid, Barcelona and Murcia. It is also
expanding into other countries and, in 2013, reinforced its presence in
Chile, Poland, Portugal and Qatar.
In Spain, it formerly operated under the Cespa and Ferroser brands, now
combined under the Ferrovial Servicios brand. In 2013, Ferrovial acquired
Enterprise, one of the UK's leading service providers, a transaction which
created value through synergies at Amey.
Ferrovial Services International is a new business unit created to drive the
growth of Ferrovial Services in new markets. In 2013, Ferrovial Services
acquired 70% of Steel Ingeniería, an operation that gave it a foothold in
Latin America and access to Chile's fast-growing mining services industry.
Ferrovial Services operates in Poland through Budimex.
Ferrovial Services' strategy includes supporting the implementation of
innovative initiatives in municipal services, through public-private
partnerships aimed at reducing costs and improving living standards in
cities, ensuring sustainable economic development and contributing to the
development of society by supporting entrepreneurship.
The approach to managing cities is changing. At Ferrovial, we are in a
privileged position, as we have a distinctive service offering and the
capacity to meet a city's main needs.

Our value proposition is based on four pillars:
Long-term public-private partnerships support the implementation of
innovative solutions and guarantee the necessary investments, It's
necessary to evolve from the current short-term contractual approach
towards the concept of partnership.
End-to-end service management provides savings of up to 20% in
municipal services costs.
The sector must evolve from an approach that involves controlling the
resources assigned to a contract to one that is based on measuring
results.
Citizens must be involved in the provision of services, and their
contribution must be recognised. For this reason, Ferrovial supports
entrepreneurship through various projects, among them: Cities Open
Challenge and Madrid Smart Lab.

3. Toll roads
Cintra, Ferrovial's toll road subsidiary, is one of the world’s
leading private sector developers of transportation infrastructure
in terms of both the number of projects and the volume of
investment.
With more than 40 years' experience in the sector, Cintra
operates a portfolio of 27 concessions totalling over 2,200
kilometres of road. It currently operates in Canada, the US,
Europe, Colombia and Australia.
As a result of its innovative projects and quality standards, it is
now one of the strongest multinationals in the sector, with
investments totalling 21.380 billion euro.
In applying the latest technology to infrastructure, the company
develops projects to apply new materials and construction
methods (smart asphalt), improve traffic management and safety
(managed lanes, dynamic tolling, detection of high-occupancy
vehicles and satellite-based tolling) and design more sustainable
roads.
One example is the North Tarrant Express in Texas, a cutting-
edge toll road designed, built and operated by Ferrovial. This
unique project involves building a managed lanes toll road inside
an existing highway. The result has been to double the road's
capacity throughout the corridor. Drivers can opt between the
free lanes or the new lanes, paying a toll that varies throughout
the day.
NTE toll road and its extension, NTE 35W: located in the Dallas-
Fort Worth area in Texas, one of the most congested areas of the
US, managed lanes provide a solution to traffic congestion

problems in cities that lack the space to build new roads. This
new concept involves upgrading the existing toll road and building
new free-flow lanes with electronic tolling. As a result, traffic flow
is improved and the road accommodates a greater volume of
vehicles.
LBJ Express: a public-private partnership with a limited taxpayer
contribution, located in Dallas County. This project is currently
under way and will include notable improvements, including the
reconstruction of the main lanes, a system of continuous frontage
roads, and 21 additional kilometres of managed lanes.
407 ETR toll road in Toronto (Canada): its novel tolling system
means that users do not have to stop at toll booths when
entering and leaving the road; the system reads number plates
automatically, calculates the distance travelled and generates the
bill. The client receives the bill at home; the service manages up
to 1.5 million bills per month. Tolls may be varied freely provided
that traffic speed remains above a minimum level. As a result, the
user pays a toll in accordance with the time he/she saves by
using the toll road.

4. Construction
In 1995, Ferrovial achieved a major milestone: the Agroman
acquisition. The transaction doubled Ferrovial's size, making it
one of the largest construction companies in Spain.
Today Ferrovial Agroman is an international leader in the design
and construction of large transport infrastructure, having built
490 kilometres of tunnels, 19,200 kilometres of highways and toll
roads, and 4,700 kilometres of railway line.
Revenues amounted to 4.064 billion euro and the backlog was
7.867 billion euro in 2013. International activity as a percentage
of the total reached new highs: 76% of revenues and 70% of the
backlog. EBITDA rose to 343 million euro, and the company
achieved the highest EBITDA margin since the Ferrovial-Agroman
merger in 1999: 8.4%.
The international construction division operates in all areas of civil
engineering and building. The division works both directly and
through subsidiaries such as Budimex in Poland and Webber in
Texas (US). It currently operates in the US, Canada, Poland, the
UK, Ireland, Portugal, Chile, Colombia, Peru, Puerto Rico, Brazil,
Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, India and Australia.
Ferrovial's main projects include Crossrail and the extension of
Northern Line, both in London, as well as the construction of
Heathrow's T2. Completed projects include the Guggenheim
Museum in Bilbao, the Montabliz Viaduct, CaixaForum in Madrid,
the Valdelentisco desalination plant, and the Autopista del Sol toll
road, among others.

5. Airports
Ferrovial entered the airport business in 1998 with the acquisition
of several airports in Mexico, followed by one in Chile, then Bristol
and Belfast (UK), Niagara Falls (US) and several in Australia
(Melbourne, Launceston and Perth).
The acquisition of airport operator BAA Airports Limited (renamed
LHR Airports) in June 2006 was one of the most ambitious
investments ever undertaken by a Spanish company. As a result,
Ferrovial took over managing seven airports in the UK, including
Heathrow, as well as Naples and Budapest airports, which it
would later sell. Following a decision by the UK Competition
Commission, Ferrovial sold Gatwick, Edinburgh and Stansted
airports.
In May 2007, Ferrovial created Ferrovial Aeropuertos to integrate
all its airport operation and management activities. The division
manages all the day-to-day processes in its four airports, which
are used by 90 million passengers and serve more than 204
airlines flying to 612 destinations worldwide.
Excellent customer service is one of its distinguishing
characteristics. Heathrow's Terminal 5 was named the World's
Best Airport Terminal at the Skytrax World Airport Awards,
recognising the company's efforts to improve the passenger
experience. Heathrow was also voted Best Airport of 2013 at the
ACI Europe awards.
Ferrovial recently acquired Aberdeen, Glasgow and Southampton
airports.

6. CSR
Ferrovial views corporate social responsibility as a strategic
function linked to sustainability, competitiveness and corporate
reputation, the goal of which is to create long-term value for all
stakeholders and for society.
For Ferrovial, it's important to be both financially profitable as
well as ethically and socially and environmentally responsible.
Accordingly, Ferrovial has defined three priority areas on which to
focus its CSR resources: the environment, society and innovation.
Ferrovial views investment in the community as a strategic
instrument to develop society and the areas where it operates.
To that end, it aligns its CR with its business strategy to develop
intelligent infrastructures (i.e. which are more efficient and
accessible, cleaner and more humane). The company also
supports the socio-economic development of other regions with
basic needs.
Ferrovial invested 3.7 million euro in the community in 2013.A
total of 334 social action projects were carried out, benefiting
more than 142,563 people directly.
Ferrovial launched the Social Infrastructure programme in
2011. The project is based on an innovative model for
collaborating with NGOs on the development of basic water and
sewage infrastructure. This year, the programme supported
projects in Peru, Mexico and Colombia, with an investment of
449,851 euro, benefiting 7,962 people.
Ferrovial's Stronger Together programme has been running
since 2005, based on a shared commitment by the company and
its employees to address global society's needs. Under this

initiative, company employees donate a portion of their monthly
salary to a social project, and these funds are matched by
Ferrovial. Stronger Together has expanded steadily; to date, the
company and its employees have donated over one million euro
to 18 projects, benefiting close to 130,000 people.
The programme seeks to support projects implemented by private
non-profit organisations that are incorporated and registered in
Spain, as a commitment shared by Ferrovial and its employees to
improving living conditions for people at risk of social exclusion.
The company is also present in the main sustainability indices,
including the Dow Jones Sustainability Index and FTSE4Good,
and periodically updates its Corporate Responsibility Strategic
Plan with a view to renewing its commitments and adapting them
to changing realities.

7. The environment
Ferrovial believes that global challenges such as climate change,
the energy crisis and the loss of biodiversity can become
opportunities. The environment has always been an important
cause for the company.
Environmental sustainability has become an important issue for
Ferrovial, not only in terms of responsibility or as a mechanism for
more efficient management of certain risks, but also as a source
of new business ideas and models in a context of global crisis.
Ferrovial is strongly committed to reducing the environmental
impact of activities and adopts a precautionary approach which
favours the environment and reduces the carbon footprint.

Ferrovial focuses innovation on developing technologies applied to
the infrastructure construction, transport, municipal services,
water, energy efficiency and environmental sustainability, with a
view to managing complex operations and offering distinctive
solutions to clients.
It implements its strategy using an open innovation model that is
enriched by interaction with an ecosystem of partners such as
companies, governments, universities and entrepreneurs.
In 2013, Ferrovial managed a total investment in innovation of
32.9 million euro in more than 100 ongoing projects.

organising the Ferrovial Innovation Awards, through which it
encourages its employees worldwide to offer solutions to four
challenges, one in each business unit. This year, the winning idea
was WPP (Warning Presence of People), which uses lights and
sounds to warn machinery operators.
Ferrovial supports the Centre for the Innovation of Smart
Infrastructures (CI3), a public sector non-profit entity whose
goal is to help promote and develop information and
communication technologies applied to infrastructure.
