Employee testimonials
« A team at the heart of operations "In my view, the procurement team is a true operational pillar of the SHDM. It ensures project continuity by managing contract awards and relying on efficient processes to meet deadlines, which is especially critical for the delivery of our real estate projects. The team also helps maintain budgets by encouraging competition and optimizing costs, while strictly adhering to applicable laws and regulations. In 2024, we awarded 102 contracts, a significant increase compared to 65 in 2023. With all team positions now filled, we were able to stabilize operations, innovate, and optimize our tools to become even more efficient. Thanks to a team with diverse expertise, we are well-positioned to continue progressing and achieve the objectives of the 2025–2028 strategic plan. Thanks to the entire procurement team for their commitment!" »
« Being present and attentive Since joining the SHDM in April 2024, I now manage nearly 800 rental units. My role as a property manager involves supporting our tenants in a wide range of situations, including during significant transitions. This was the case when we took over the management of 138 units previously managed by Habitations Terrasse Saint-Michel (HTSM), as well as during the acquisition of the La Pépinière buildings. Our main challenge, as a new manager or new owner, is to ensure a smooth transition while building a relationship of trust with tenants. It is essential to focus on a positive tenant experience, being present, attentive, and available, as these changes often represent major milestones for them. Beyond official written communications, we also organize informational meetings in the buildings, with participation from representatives of various SHDM departments. These special moments allow us to answer tenants’ questions, reassure them, and help them better understand our mission. Both transitions, related to the management takeover and the acquisitions, went smoothly thanks to the dedication of our internal team: agile, experienced, and capable of adapting quickly to change. »
