Corporate Real Estate as a Value Driver for Business Transformation and Operational Agility

For most companies, real estate is not a core business, but nearly every enterprise must actively manage their real assets even though doing so is a complex task.

With the right strategy in place, managing corporate real estate can positively impact EBITDA.

Corporate real estate can be used as a value creation tool by aligning business objectives and growth and reducing operating expenses through efficiency. Here are some key steps that companies should follow:

• Understand the inertia of corporate real estate management
• Create discipline and rigor in the process
• Change the historical broker relationship by applying new leasing approaches
• Focus on facilities management in a smart way
• Emphasize lease restructuring
• Deploy technology and adopt AI in the right places
• Monetize non-core assets
• Consolidate real estate portfolios around geographic and organizational clusters
