Nel 1994/1995, quando fu fatto lo studio di fattibilità, la Direction Exploitation (DE) non era menzionata come tale da nessuna parte. Nell'ambito di Expo.01, i progetti già esistenti ricadono sotto la responsabilità della Direction Finances e della Direction Technique. 

Solo nel gennaio 2000, in seguito alla ristrutturazione proposta da Expo.02, è stata introdotta una Direction Exploitation che comprendeva tutti i progetti relativi alla fase operativa dell'Expo.
