What Toma does
Toma (Tomagruppen AS) is a family-owned Norwegian facility management company headquartered in Bergen, founded in 1978 by Tore Monsen and Mads Madsen. The company provides integrated facility management services across six core lines: Renhold (cleaning), Kantine (canteen/catering), Camps (workforce accommodation for construction and industrial sites), Eiendomsdrift (property and technical building management), Vakthold (security/guard services), and Kontortjenester (office support). With approximately 4,500–5,000 employees, ~8,000 contracts, and revenue around NOK 2.5 billion (DKK 1.8 billion in 2025), Toma serves large enterprises, public-sector clients, property owners, and construction/industrial customers primarily in Norway and Denmark, with Sweden as a stated expansion target.
Toma's technology stack is centered on IoT sensor deployment across managed buildings (CO2, temperature, humidity sensors feeding a digital building management platform), demand-based (needs-driven) service scheduling instead of time-based routines, digital twin concepts for property management, and drone-based facade inspection via its NEAS Fasade subsidiary. The company has adopted the Morescope ESG platform (built on SINTEF methodology) for CSRD-compliant sustainability reporting, and holds ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001 certifications, Nordic Swan Ecolabel, and Miljøfyrtårn certification. The business model is managed services under long-term enterprise contracts awarded primarily through formal tenders (anbud), with pricing negotiated per client per contract — no public rate cards or pricing tiers exist. Distribution is direct enterprise sales, supplemented by an acquisition-led growth strategy that has added at least 15 companies since 1979 (Byggrent, Albatross Forpleining, Rentex, Neas, Dansk Facility Services, ISS Direct, Lev-Vel, NRS Norge, Elitevask, Allianceplus, among others).
In January 2025, Frode Monsen succeeded founder Tore Monsen as CEO due to Tore Monsen's health-related departure. In May 2026, ISS World Services A/S announced an agreement to acquire Tomagruppen, conditional on approval from the Norwegian Competition Authority (Konkurransetilsynet) — a transaction that, if approved, would end 45+ years of Monsen family ownership and place Toma within one of the world's largest FM groups.

Revenue model
- Facility Management Services (Integrated): Toma bundles multiple FM services (cleaning, canteen, camps, property management, security, office services) under one management contract. Revenue is generated through long-term service agreements with enterprises and public-sector clients, typically structured as recurring annual or multi-year contracts. The company acts as a single-source provider, consolidating what clients would otherwise purchase from multiple vendors.
- Single-Service Contracts: Toma also delivers individual services (e.g., standalone cleaning, canteen, or security contracts) to clients who prefer single-service procurement. These are typically recurring monthly or annual contracts.
- Camps / Workforce Accommodation: Toma Camps provides workforce accommodation and catering services (forpleining) for construction camps and remote work sites, generating revenue from both accommodation fees and food service, typically on project-duration contracts.

Toma competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- ISS A/S: Global facility services leader and the acquirer of Tomagruppen. Directly comparable: provides integrated FM (cleaning, property, security, catering) to enterprise and public-sector clients worldwide. Most relevant peer because of identical service portfolio and the pending acquisition making ISS both competitor and acquirer.
- Coor Service Management Holding AB: Leading Nordic FM provider headquartered in Sweden, offering integrated workplace, cleaning, property, and food services. Closely comparable to Toma in service mix and target customer profile; serves as Toma's primary competitor for cross-Nordic enterprise contracts and the entrenched incumbent in the Swedish market Toma is targeting.
- Bravida Holding AB: Leading Nordic technical building services and installation provider covering electrical, HVAC, and property technical operations. Comparable to Toma's Eiendomsdrift (property management/technical operations) segment and competes for technical FM tenders in Norwegian and Swedish markets.
Broad incumbents
- Sodexo S.A. Global FM and food services major with significant Nordic operations. Overlaps with Toma's integrated FM, canteen, and security offerings across enterprise and public-sector accounts, though Sodexo operates at much larger scale and globally rather than Nordic-only.
- Compass Group plc: World's largest contract food services and support services provider. Comparable in canteen/catering and broader FM segments to Toma; competes for major Nordic enterprise and institutional food service contracts that overlap with Toma's Kantine business.
- Caverion Oyj: Nordic-based building solutions and FM provider focused on technical building services, maintenance, and energy efficiency. Comparable to Toma's property management and IoT-enabled energy optimization offerings; broader portfolio but overlapping enterprise and public-sector customer base.
Emerging players
- Eltel Networks Oyj: Nordic infrastructure services provider covering power, communication, and building infrastructure. Partial overlap with Toma's technical facility management and security services, particularly in Nordic enterprise and public-sector infrastructure accounts.
Regional players
- Malling & Co Forvaltning AS: Norwegian commercial real estate services and property management firm. Comparable to Toma's Eiendomsdrift segment and competes for Norwegian commercial property management mandates, particularly in the Oslo region.
