Portfolio optimisation
Develop flexible and resilient portfolios to adapt to the ‘Next Normal’
Portfolio optimisation
With home working now firmly embedded in the routine of the global workforce, many organisations need to reimagine their portfolio strategy. All signs point towards a diverse future corporate ecosystem that leverages the benefits of multiple asset types, locations and remote working. It is vital for companies to explore opportunities to rationalise and future-proof their portfolios, mitigating risks in a context of business uncertainty and creating workplaces that scale with growth.
A transparent evaluation of your portfolio backed by data and deep knowledge of market trends
It will be key to evaluate your portfolio in the face of the new realities of remote working, rise of e-commerce, decelerating urbanisation, as workers opt to avoid busy commutes, choosing the ability to work locally and consumers prefer to purchase online. Owners across all industries will need to adapt to the new needs of tenants, such as the requirement for physical space to be de-densified, digitally-enabled and heavy on amenities to support better collaboration, but also evolving physical footprints and occupier location strategies.
Our Portfolio Optimisation services help you to make the right decision on your portfolio strategy, based on clear understanding of your company objectives, the market dynamics in which your buildings operate, your space usage and your building operational costs.
