Property Management
The management of commercial real estate plays a critical role in delivering on owner and occupier sustainability aspirations.
Translating the rhetoric of corporate commitments into action on commercial real estate portfolios, funds and individual buildings will require considerable upskilling to embed sustainability into the responsibilities of asset, property and facilities managers. To help move our members and the industry forward on best practice in this area, we have our Property Management workstream, which incorporates our Managing Agents Partnership and associated projects.
Managing Agents Partnership Co-Chairs
Our Managing Agents Partnership (MAP) is a collaboration of leading property managers who are committed to improving the sustainable management of commercial property assets. MAP has 19 members, facilitating an open forum for managing agents to collaborate and develop common approaches to industry challenges.
