GROUPE IDEC continues the transformation of the Nouveau Saint-Roch district in Montpellier (34) with its flagship project, ROCH PLAZA. Designed and built by IDEC GRAND SUD, and developed by GROUPE IDEC INVEST, this architectural complex follows a functional and sustainable approach, addressing the evolving needs of businesses and users.
Following the initial lease-up of several floors by BUREAUX&CO, the project has now reached a new key milestone: the fit-out of levels 1, 2, and 3 to accommodate SNCF offices. Zakaria, Site Manager at IDEC GRAND SUD, shares insights into the project’s progress.
A tailor-made fit-out for SNCF
The project consists of fitting out 1,700 sqm of office space across three levels, each dedicated to key SNCF departments.
Level R+1 (330 sqm)
- SNCF IMMO: Department responsible for managing SNCF’s real estate assets at regional level, including buildings, offices, and other properties.
- ATM: Supports employees in their internal mobility by assisting them with job opportunities within the company.
Level R+2 (800 sqm) – Local Operations Center (COP)
This department, part of the TER division, manages incidents affecting regional trains (TER) by mobilizing the necessary human and technical resources. Operating 24/7, it ensures real-time railway traffic regulation and implements immediate solutions in case of disruptions.
Level R+3 (570 sqm)
- APF (Payroll and Family Agencies): HR department dedicated to managing employee compensation and social benefits for railway staff.
- E-SNCF: Entity responsible for digital transformation, aimed at modernizing tools and digital services to enhance customer experience.
Thanks to these fit-outs, each department will benefit from optimized workspaces, enabling teams to efficiently carry out their essential missions for the smooth operation of the railway network.
