1km à Pied is a French design office and software publisher specialising in employer mobility plans. It maps where employees live and work, measures the carbon footprint of their commute and shows which drivers could realistically switch to cycling, public transport or carpooling, or work at a site closer to home.
About 1km à Pied
1km à Pied is a French simplified joint-stock company based in Mâcon, co-founded by its CEO Laure Wagner after 11 years at BlaBlaCar. It is both a design office for employer mobility plans and the publisher of two software tools: Karto.tech, which models current commutes and the realistic modal shift, and Kelsite, which manages geographic internal mobility and helps multi-site employers assign staff closer to home. The team brings together mobility consultants, developers, a UX designer and a product manager, with an external data protection officer who oversees GDPR compliance during each assignment. It has completed more than 200 employer mobility plans for companies, public bodies and local authorities, from single sites to networks of about a hundred sites. Clients shown on its site include EDF, La Poste, Carrefour, Crédit Agricole S.A., Lidl, Janssen, Ceva Logistics, Idex and Cerema. 1km à Pied is listed in the UGAP-SCC multi-publisher software catalogue, so French public buyers can commission it on a simple quote. Its co-founder is a co-author of the Fresque de la Mobilité workshop.

What 1km à Pied has delivered
Les Résidences Yvelines EssonneSocial housing
Three years of follow-up and 32 fewer cars at head office every day
Les Résidences has more than 600 employees spread over about a hundred sites. 1km à Pied produced its employer mobility plan and updated it every year for three consecutive years, so the effect of each action could be measured. The diagnosis showed strong potential to reassign staff closer to home and to build a local employer brand. Les Résidences then held an open day to recruit local candidates for its new head office in Mantes-la-Jolie and ran a carpooling policy, with a sign-up stand for employees.
A national mobility plan for 2,300 public agents on 34 sites
Cerema, the French public centre for expertise on risks, mobility and planning, set a carbon transition plan for 2023-2025 and asked 1km à Pied, through a public tender, to help it cut mobility-related CO₂ emissions by 11%. The team analysed the commutes of all 2,300 agents and their business trips across more than 30 sites in every region of France, including 3 overseas. It compared the staff survey with its own data analysis, trained a network of mobility referents through 5 webinars, produced per-site fact sheets with the potential modal shift, communication kits on 8 themes and a catalogue of action sheets. It singled out 5 priority sites and supported the launch of carpooling, with a carpooling day on each site.
CS Group designs and runs critical systems for space, aeronautics and energy. 1km à Pied analysed the commutes of its 1,500 employees across 8 sites and drew up a multi-site employer mobility plan, including an analysis of reassignments closer to home. The diagnosis led to an action plan focused on carpooling and on promoting a local employer brand. CS Group received access to the 1km à Pied platform, with maps per site, the potential modal shift, the expected savings and the sizing of the sustainable mobility allowance.
Mobility plans for 29 sites and very different trades
Idex, a French energy transition company, asked 1km à Pied to draw up the employer mobility plan for 29 sites and more than 1,500 employees, organised in regional divisions, agencies and sectors. To reach each trade and its constraints, the team ran 4 targeted surveys, supported staff in signing up to carpooling and helped find coworking spaces. Over 18 months the support covered cycling, carpooling and local recruitment.
“J’ai été très satisfait du Plan de Mobilité réalisé pour nos 8 établissements tant par la réactivité des équipes que par la clarté et la complétude du dossier remis. La plateforme permet d'être pragmatique sur la priorisation des actions sur chaque site. L'équipe (très experte !) était disponible au début et tout au long de la mission pour m'accompagner, et pour la présentation aux représentants du personnel.”
Stéphane Guilleminot,CS Group
“1km à pied nous suit depuis 18 mois sur la mise en place de nos Plans de Mobilité (vélo, covoiturage et recrutement local entre autres). Laure et son équipe se sont adaptées à nos contraintes et notre organisation complexe en Directions Régionales, agences, secteurs avec une grande diversité de métier ! Je recommande.”
