Sol Paysage compagny is a technical consulting firm "referent" of national rank for the sector in its specialties. Its intellectual services cover two fields of activity:

landscape engineering (development of public green spaces)
agropedological expertise (soil fertility studies).

Its clients are mainly local authorities subject to the public procurement code, as well as architects, urban planners and other landscape designers.
As a contractor or subcontractor, the production of its services requires rigorous management and optimized productivity of the numerous technical or contractual documents that it produces internally or transmits to its clients and working partners.

The PAÏS system is unique: it has been set up both to assist in the document life cycle (generation, referencing, validation and version tracking) and to capitalize on the expertise and know-how of the company's experts.

PAÏS centralizes the whole of the considered heritage in order to better share it between the various actors who can thus act even from distant geographical locations.
