Created to assist the ARMONIA Group in its transformation towards new challenges, the Major Projects and Innovation Department is headed by Corinne Colson Lafon. Its objective is to develop new offers on the Workplace and Hospitality Management market.

The arrival of Pierre-André Potts confirms Armonia's mission to strengthen its position in the facility management market by deploying a disruptive approach: hospitality management. Pierre-André will be responsible for structuring, deploying and selling the hospitality offer, particularly to companies wishing to enhance the experience of their employees by offering an innovative service-based approach to office life, whether face-to-face or teleworking.

Armonia does not want to become a classic facility management player but wants to propose new organisational and managerial models that put the welfare of the employee (receptionist, security guard, cleanliness officer, maintenance officer, etc.) at the centre of its approach for a better quality of service and thus ensuring a rewarding employee and visitor experience.
