To provide a direct response to the aim of optimising the enhancement of assets by improving the cross-checking of data with spatiotemporal models (geographical data, connected objects, marketing data, etc.)

The challenge involves, in particular, enabling users to have easy acces to an ecosystem of building solutions to feed back information from the field. Thanks to the ergonomic and visual management of the buildings, the business line processes and working methods will be facilitated, standardised and made more reliable. 

The project feeds itself on a gradual basis, the aim being to unite the business line actors by bringing them on board of the project as their needs are defined. As a consequence, this project is conducted in a collaborative and transversal manner:

• Topic-based workshops
• Proof of Concept (PoC)
• Rollout using an iterative methode

The progressive construction of a web application that can be accessed on a tablet and constitute a multi-service platform in the areas of property management based on mapped support (rental management, optimised maintenance, operation of the building, knowledge of the inventory, occupancy, floor space, usage, etc.)
