Hospitality, Retail & Customer-facing Sites

HVAC, plumbing, cleaning and security directly affect the guest experience.

The same FM framework can support hospitality operations across Senegal.

Hotels and public-facing sites require discreet interventions, reliable comfort systems and service frequencies aligned with occupancy.

Vigilus coordinates teams, controls and escalation to keep spaces available and minimise visible disruption.
