Corporate Social Responsibility Report 2019 | Cushman & Wakefield

Innovating in the Netherlands

Last year, our Netherlands team created a strategic data analytics platform to collect, validate, monitor and analyze the sustainability data of real estate portfolios. The platform, called

Cwing Sustainability, facilitates oversight of the collection of energy, carbon emissions, water, waste and certifications

data in order to analyze, set performance targets and improve the sustainability performance for our clients. Not only does this save time and improve data quality, it enables clients to continuously monitor performance and strategically focus on improvement of data availability. Through the Cwing platform, our clients are able to consistently report high-quality sustainability data in their annual reporting, CSR reporting and on their GRESB performance.

Achieving Dual Environmental Certification for INVESCO

Cushman & Wakefield obtained a dual environmental certification for INVESCO for Prisma Tower, located in the La Défense business district of Paris. When INVESCO set out to enhance the value of its asset, we assisted them in choosing and achieving the HQE Exploitation certification, then took advantage of this management system to more easily obtain a BREEAM In-Use certification. In partnership with the company ERGELIS, we have implemented an energy management system that has saved 20% of energy usage over three years for the benefit of the building’s tenants. As a result, we reached the HQE certification at the outstanding level on Building Management and Asset Performance in 2019.
