Why should asset managers and building owners talk to engineers?

all commercial buildings require engineering due diligence and energy modeling to optimize operations & capital plan

more then 85% of energy due diligence is based on non-strategic tasks that should be automated and empowered by Artificial Intelligence

Firms have limited scalability and opportunities to improve margins due to human hours restrictions and inefficient processes

Current Industry Practice

Manual & unreliable data

Highly inefficient process: up to 150 billable hours per project spent on manual tasks

Cost prohibitive: up to $30,000 of billable hour costs per project

Static results that do not allow for real-time client feedback

Limited ability to scale business & increase margins

AI-backed data analytics

Highly efficient process: up to 150 hours of manual work cut down to 30 minutes of automated results

Cost effective: up to 90% decrease in billabe hour costs

Dinamic results that allow for real-time client-provider collaboration

Exponential ability for scaling and high margin efficiencies

Current Industry Practice

Physical human audit

Automated energy audit

Manual & unreliable data

AI-backed data analytics

Time-consuming: 4-8 weeks

Real-time & ongoing results

Expensive
$30,000 - $100,000 price range

Cost efficient

Not scalable

Scalable – portfolio & individual asset analytics

Decarbonization journey is not linked to financial view of the asset

Decarbonization journey directly linked to financial view of the asset

Unclear path forward based on the produced report
