Context

With a portfolio of 25 million square meters of built surfaces, 2 billion square meters of unbuilt land, and over 80,000 structures of 150 different types, the French Ministry of the Armed Forces oversees more than €15 billion worth of assets. The Ministry sought to assess the required budget—both funding and staffing—to ensure the preservation of its real estate and Infrastructure assets at both national and site-specific levels. The objective was to justify and communicate these needs in order to secure appropriate funding and reduce the Ministry’s infrastructure maintenance backlog (“dette grise”).

Our Solution

  • Performance mapping of infrastructure and building assets
  • Modeling and simulation of asset aging using the Oxand Simeo™ software, followed by the definition of an optimal strategy
  • Evolution of the performance map under budgetary constraints (Military Programming Law) at both the national level and per defense base over a 10-year period (LPM scenario), including simulation of the infrastructure maintenance backlog (“dette grise”)
