The 2012 season for FDJ–BigMat began in January at the Tour Down Under. As a UCI ProTeam, the team were automatically invited and obligated to send a squad to every event in the UCI World Tour.

After a season at Professional Continental level in 2011, FDJ were promoted back to the top tier for the 2012 season, taking one of the two vacant licences that had been made available following the conclusion of the 2011 season.[2] Also prior to the season, French building merchants BigMat joined the team as co-sponsors, contributing €2 million to the team.[3]
