What Inolya does

Inolya is the Office Public de l'Habitat (OPH) du Calvados, a public housing authority operating as a government entity under the supervision of the Conseil Départemental du Calvados. Headquartered in Caen and employing approximately 390 staff, it functions as the designated primary social housing provider (bailleur social) for the Calvados department in Normandy, France. The organization manages a portfolio of apartments, houses, and pavilions across all communes in the department, allocating more than 3,000 social housing units per year under the unified housing-request file (Fichier Unique) used by all social housing organizations in Calvados. It serves low- and moderate-income households, seniors and people with reduced mobility (with ~620 adapted units annually), youth exiting state care, and families, with a stated mission prioritizing proximity-based tenant accompaniment ("nous logeons des personnes avant de gérer des logements").

The core product is regulated social housing (HLM) rental, with rents set by government formulas tied to unit type, surface, and tenant income — disclosed rents range from €204/month (T1 studio, 35m²) to €591/month (T4, 88m²), excluding charges. Revenue derives from three streams: regulated rental income (subscription/recurring), ancillary parking and storage rentals from €15/month (available to non-tenants without income conditions), and government subsidies from the Conseil Départemental supporting new construction (€47M average annual) and renovation of existing stock (€27M average annual). In 2022 the organization delivered 383 new units and rehabilitated 1,295 units. Operational technology is centered on a digital tenant portal (Espace Client), an online eligibility simulator, and the Dispositif Respect. anti-incivility framework; no AI/ML capabilities are disclosed.

Product surface extends beyond traditional rental via Club Inolya (a tenant loyalty program with 50+ local partners), Coloc'Emploi (supported colocation for youth exiting state care, launched July 2025), and PSLA social property-acquisition pathways (announced June 2026) that enable tenants to transition from renting to ownership. Distribution relies on a physical agency network (Accueils Inolya), the 42-point Points Info 14 / Maison France Services network within 15 minutes of any Calvados resident, and self-serve digital channels. Quality is validated externally through the Label LIVIA customer-service certification (2022) and the Prix régional de la Construction Bois (2025). President Jean-Léonce Dupont leads the organization, which has no venture or private-equity ownership given its public-entity status.
