Comprehensive Sustainability Services for Clients

Energy and Sustainability Services Overview

Energy and Sustainability Services is a comprehensive global service offering. Whether a company or investor manages a single asset or a complex portfolio, Jones Lang LaSalle helps develop a comprehensive sustainability program that aligns with an organization’s broader business strategy and provides measurable savings and results. Our holistic approach considers not just how facilities are built, operated and maintained, but their location and employee commute patterns as well. We start by working to understand our client’s drivers and objectives, then evaluate their portfolio and workplace strategies, and baseline and benchmark real estate’s performance. We can then devise a roadmap that outlines strategic, short- and long-term priorities and goals. From energy management to workplace strategies, we help our clients achieve optimal results with real impact.

Jones Lang LaSalle’s path to real estate gives investors and corporate users clear, practical and ultimately profitable steps to a more sustainable portfolio.  The following is a snapshot of select service offerings we provide to clients:

1.      Real Estate Sustainability Strategy – Provides the client with a single point of contact to develop a sustainable real estate strategy and program.  We can develop and manage all aspects of an environmental sustainability program.  Such assignments can include GHG reduction target development to alternative workplace strategies implementation.

2.      Real Estate Sustainability Assessment/Benchmark –  A fast yet comprehensive property-by-property analysis that determines what strategy to pursue, what investments to make, what return to expect and what certification is most appropriate for the asset.

3.      Upgrade/Disposition/Acquisition – Jones Lang LaSalle real estate services carry out the execution of each strategy, including upgrading the sustainability of an asset, selling the asset, or acquiring assets that are more sustainable.

4.      Certification – Submission to appropriate standards such as LEED, Green Globes, Energy Star and others.

5.      Sustainability Engagement and/or Marketing Program – For investor clients, we offer a four-module program that includes proven materials for asset sales, leasing, tenant engagement and community relations.  For corporate clients, we develop and implement a full range of employee engagement and communication programs aligned with any sustainability strategy or program implementation effort.

6.      Sustaining Sustainability – Periodic data collection and analysis on assets to determine progress and opportunities for further improvement.
