Background

Against the backdrop of the fight against climate change, the shift to France's environmental regulations and market expectations, Cogedim called on Vizcab to accelerate the structuring of its approach to carbon in several respects. The aim was to generalize an internal carbon culture, capitalizing on all feedback to find relevant levers at project level, but also for the organization's overall trajectory. 

Both at operational level, by giving technical teams the relevant tools to work on their real estate projects on a daily basis, and to capitalize on the intelligence gathered to implement a dynamic of continuous improvement, but also at strategic level to provide decision-makers with the right lines of thinking.

The Vizcab service

Alongside Cogedim, Vizcab has deployed a security and continuous improvement system:

  • LCA campaign on more than 12,000 housing units and 40,000 m² of office space
  • Series of regional training courses to disseminate feedback from the campaign and help people get to grips with the tools
  • Deployment of the Vizcab customized tools series at Cogedim :
    • Vizcab Library integrating Cogedim's library of building systems (macro-components + regional scenarios) developed by its technical department
    • Vizcab Explo to estimate a project's carbon performance upstream
    • Vizcab Exam with a personalized alert system in the event of an anomaly in an advanced study
    • Vizcab Analytics to visualize and monitor your organization's carbon footprint

The expert's opinion

Jérôme, Low Carbon Engineering Lead

We are proud to have been able to support Cogedim in their genuine desire to implement a virtuous carbon dynamic, both at project level and at the level of the overall organization. Cogedim quickly realized that a successful carbon transition requires a 360-degree vision across the entire project value chain.

Our greatest success lies at the human level: in establishing real consistency between the carbon objectives given to operational staff, and the tools they are given to achieve them, which simplifies the teams' day-to-day work and gives them a real sense of clarity.
