Challenge	Beacon Capital Partners, a tenant-focused private real estate investment firm, was looking for ways to reduce operating costs and improve building performance. The firm had made a strong commitment to sustainability and ESG initiatives, including a public commitment to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions by 2.5% annually over a 10-year period. However, implementing firmwide policies and initiatives was a challenge due to the decentralized nature of their operations. Additionally, the firm struggled to quickly and easily get operational recommendations into the hands of engineers, who were busy with other tasks. This often resulted in a delay in the implementation of energy efficiency measures. Read More
About Customer	Beacon Capital Partners is a tenant-focused private real estate investment firm with a 75-year legacy of successful development, ownership, and management. The firm has made a strong commitment to sustainability and ESG initiatives, including publicly committing to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions by 2.5% annually over a 10-year period. As a widely recognized sustainability leader, Beacon has received the ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year designation every year since 2012, has over 55 million square feet of LEED Certified space, and most recently won GRESB’s Overall Regional Sector Leader award.

Solution	Beacon partnered with Measurabl and Building Engines to streamline their ESG strategy. Through Measurabl’s Asset Optimization platform, building operators were able to drastically lower building operating costs by making inexpensive equipment adjustments to after-hours operations. The platform also provided a portfolio-wide view of asset performance, helping to eliminate information silos and keep decentralized teams aligned. To further improve efficiency, Measurabl integrated with Building Engines, allowing efficiency measures from the platform to be sent as work orders through Building Engines. This integration meant that engineers didn’t have to learn a new platform or remember to log in every morning or sign off at the end of their shifts. Instead, when Measurabl detected unusual electricity usage, it would home in on the source of the problem and push a ticket to the engineers through the existing operations platform.
