ZUO Partners with Certinal E-Sign to Keep Architecture Projects Moving — One Signature at a Time
After outgrowing its previous E-Signature provider, ZUO selects Certinal to power the documents that keep projects on track
Wilmington, Delaware – May 29, 2026 — We are proud to announce that ZUO (Zestful Urban Office), a France-based architecture and urban planning firm with practices in Paris, Montpellier, Nice, Barcelona, and Abidjan — known for landmark projects including the restructuring and renovation of Saint-Germain Market, Saint Lazare Train Station, and the Qwartz Shopping Center — has selected Certinal E-Sign to power its E-Signature workflows.
Replacing a legacy E-Signature incumbent, Certinal E-Sign will serve as ZUO’s platform for executing Orders of Service and payment certificates that keep its architecture and construction engagements moving forward. With native French-language support and tamper-proof audit trails built into every transaction, Certinal gives ZUO a signing experience designed for how its teams and external partners already work — fast, compliant, and without friction.
Powered by Certinal’s secure, enterprise-ready E-Signature platform, this engagement ensures that the documents at the center of ZUO’s project delivery — from service agreements to payment approvals — are executed seamlessly, keeping construction timelines on track and operations running without interruption.
