Transform your strategic vision into a concrete action plan
A successful project goes beyond the idea — it’s about turning vision into a durable and efficient reality through thoughtful planning. We unlock the potential of space to enhance functionality, performance, and long-term adaptability.

For me, real estate planning at STGM is first and foremost a strategic process where rigor, attentive listening, and innovation come together. Every day, I see how our integrated approach allows us to address complex needs, both in public and private settings, by drawing on the complementarity of our expertise and on genuine collaboration with all stakeholders.

An approach designed for you, tailored to your reality
Our in-depth knowledge of standards, ministerial requirements, and best practices in healthcare, education, and public administration allows us to support each organization with a customized approach grounded in listening, collaboration, and innovation.
Proven tools and methods to deliver tangible results
With hundreds of completed mandates, we’ve developed a robust methodology supported by powerful technological tools and flexible deliverables. Our services include survey planning, technical audits, value analysis, process mapping, and data integration into clients’ digital platforms.
Our clear vision: to deliver real estate solutions that meet the actual needs of occupants, while fostering stakeholder buy-in and ensuring the long-term sustainability of facilities.
Recognized expertise in healthcare to support your projects
In the healthcare sector, our team stands out for its ability to connect clinical and real estate challenges. We place the needs of occupants at the heart of every project, drawing on deep knowledge of the healthcare network, ministerial guidelines, and innovative approaches such as Lean and Six Sigma. This clinical sensitivity translates into functional, human-centered, and sustainable environments, where every real estate decision is guided by the needs and well-being of patients.

An approach that engages your stakeholders from the very start
Each project is an opportunity to create meaning. We promote active consultation with relevant groups to foster shared and tailored solutions. This approach generates valuable synergy between the institution’s teams and STGM’s specialists, enabling the transformation of collected data into informed and relevant decisions.
Our decision-making tools — such as criteria-based grids and collaborative workshops — help structure choices while enhancing collective intelligence. Each mandate thus becomes an opportunity to build functional, human-centered, and inspiring environments rooted in their communities.

Able to navigate seamlessly across clinical, technical, and organizational considerations, our team brings together complementary expertise to support each project.
