Our Objectives

At Vonovia, our objective is to consistently push forward with digitalization in order to improve our tenants’ living and service experience. We are continuously working on further digitalizing our internal processes to allow us to respond to our customers’ needs more quickly and efficiently. By developing new digital tools such as the remote heating monitoring app, we are optimizing our use of resources and helping to reduce CO₂ emissions. At the same time, we go to great lengths to ensure data security and data protection in order to safeguard our tenants’ privacy and build greater trust.

Challenges, Opportunities and Risks

Opportunities

Advancing digitalization in our company provides us with the opportunity to improve the efficiency and standardization of our processes and thus also create more added value for our customers.

Risks

The increasing degree of digitalization also brings risks with it – for example, due to potential violations of data protection regulations, other data breaches or server failures. We always monitor these risks and take appropriate measures if necessary.
