Dortmund-based housing company DOGEWO21 is an innovative pioneer in its field. Since 2021, it has integrated another successful tool, the tenant app, into its digital strategy and everyday operations. It also quickly found a mobile solution to meet the new EED requirements – a solution that is expedient and satisfactory for all parties. PROMOS has accompanied DOGEWO21 throughout these changes as a digitisation partner for some 20 years now. The results? Very positive feedback from tenants and an operational flexibility that more than meets the demands of today’s competitive market. What do 20 years of successful cooperation look like? How did it all start back then? And what might the future hold in terms of digitisation in the real estate industry? These questions and more were put to Klaus Graniki, Managing Director of DOGEWO21. Read on to find out what he particularly appreciates about the PROMOS method of working and which projects he is looking forward to.
