Real estate management: the benefits of TOM
![](/fileadmin/_processed_/0/d/csm_Wincasa_TOM_Header_8886617c6d.jpg)
With Wincasa, Implenia has Switzerland's leading real estate service provider on board. One of its core tasks is property management. Wincasa manages no fewer than 253,825 properties, including both residential and commercial real estate.
Breaking new ground in property management
Management is currently being restructured. "In the dynamic business area in which we find ourselves, we have to continuously develop and find innovative ways to meet the needs of our stakeholders and set ourselves apart from the competition," explains Philipp Schoch, Head of Property Management at Wincasa. For this reason, a new management model (Target Operating Model, TOM for short) will be implemented by the end of 2025, which will have benefits for tenants, owners and employees.
What exactly will change with TOM?
First and foremost, the management of residential and commercial properties will be spatially and organizationally separated and the two areas will be further professionalized. To this end, Wincasa will open a total of 18 residential walk-in locations and eight commercial locations throughout Switzerland by the end of 2025. The teams will also be reorganized. This will bring Wincasa even closer to its tenants.

Exciting career opportunities, more responsibility
Thanks to new job profiles and the opportunity to take on even more responsibility at the locations, interesting career opportunities are opening up for employees. In this way, TOM is also helping to position Wincasa as a modern, attractive employer and counteract the shortage of skilled workers.
Opening in three waves
The locations will be opened in three waves. In the first wave, seven locations are currently being opened in the central region (the residential locations in Basel Claraturm, Basel Grosspeter, Olten, Baden, Bern and Wallisellen are already in operation). The second wave will take place in the fourth quarter of 2024, followed by the branches in western Switzerland in the third wave at the end of 2025, which will complete the project.
