Sustainable development
La Capitale at the centre of Quebec City's architectural heritage
Our head office is located in the heart of Parliament Hill, the workplace of our primary clients. Its clean lines, perfect integration into the historic setting and the quality of its interior design have made it a new showpiece on the hill since 2012.
To date, 1,710 employees who were scattered among several buildings in Quebec City now work under the same roof in the new head office, resulting in considerable efficiencies for our group.
