Groupe tbmaestro and Akonovia are joining forces to create a unique and integrated sustainable asset management advisory offering for the French market.

This complementarity makes it possible to better guide decisions and to manage the performance of assets throughout their life cycle, by integrating the challenges of energy sobriety and decarbonization.

Together, the two entities are structuring a unique offering for asset managers, covering the entire value chain: from strategic asset planning to decarbonization roadmaps and energy performance optimization. This integrated offering leverages a combined knowledge of the French and Quebec markets and a team of 170 employees located in Paris, Lyon, Montreal, and Sherbrooke.

According to Claire Duclos, Managing Director of tbmaestro France: “By combining our expertise with that of Akonovia, we offer an integrated approach to energy efficiency and asset management. This complementarity allows us to more effectively support organizations in their technical, strategic, and operational challenges, in rapidly evolving markets.”

According to Philippe Hudon, president of Akonovia: “Energy efficiency in buildings is now much more than a technical issue: it is a strategic and economic one. This collaboration allows our clients, in France and Quebec, to better understand their assets, improve their performance, and make more informed decisions in a rapidly changing environment.”

A major regulatory and economic challenge for the French market

The real estate sector accounts for nearly 45%[1] of final energy consumption in France and is one of the main levers for decarbonization identified by public authorities. In this context, asset managers—local authorities, social housing providers, and organizations—face increasing demands: tertiary energy efficiency schemes, RE2020 regulations, ESG reporting, and carbon neutrality targets by 2050.

The merger of Groupe tbmaestro and Akonovia addresses this reality by offering comprehensive and structured support. This approach enables organizations to transform their regulatory obligations into concrete drivers of performance and asset value.

The tbmaestro Group combines complementary expertise in strategic asset management, digital technologies, and operational performance. Through tbmaestro and its digital platform myA, it supports organizations in the planning, monitoring, and sustainable development of their buildings, infrastructure, and equipment. Ammco complements this offering with its expertise in maintenance, reliability, and asset performance throughout their entire lifecycle.
