3. Development and
Investment
• Investment Due Diligence: When clients are looking to place
money, our team helps to find and validate opportunities. Our
market discovery process highlights risks, legal challenges, and
market pricing issues. Our detailed reports cover local business
climates and regulatory environments that help investors to
avoid pitfalls and be successful from day one.
• Asset Monetization: Many of our public sector clients have a
need to monetize assets such as land or infrastructure. Our
team evaluates physical asset portfolios and implements
investment and divestiture strategies that bring in higher
returns while creating jobs and increasing future revenues.
• Capital Sourcing: We assist clients in understanding valuation
for their projects and in constructing of an appropriate capital
stack. Our team builds investor syndicates to finance projects.
• Smartcity planning: We understand the complexities of
developing the new urban environment. From area-wide
information and communication technology integration to
building-level automation, we know how to help you create
places that increase global competitive advantage and build
social contracts that work.
• Branding, marketing and promotion: Generating excitement
and interest is a key value driver for any development. We
leverage the latest tools and methods to create awareness and
engage stakeholders.
• Financial advisory: Sourcing capital requires a detailed
understanding and visual articulation of returns. Our financial
modeling team will translate actions into dollars and help you
secure funding for your projects.
4. Feasibility
Our client needed to invest in
upgrades for their corporate
campus. We created a risk
assessment and economic
impact analysis; building
business cases around
alternatives and drafting a
feasibility study to assess
timing and criticality of
transactions.
Investment
A private equity group was
looking to invest in the MENA
region. We developed profiles
that helped our clients target
high-value real estate
investments by leveraging in-
depth knowledge of business
regulations, legal and tax
issues, and financial investment
criteria
Valuation
Valuing a building is somewhat
of an art. Valuing thousands of
buildings requires a more
scientific approach. By
developing an six sigma
valuation method, we helped
provide current valuations for
more than 80% of portfolio
assets without deploying
resources to the field.
Qualification Summaries
Workplace Strategy
How can you reduce costs and
improve productivity? We to
designed a new flexible
workplace aligned with the
client’s business model; while
reducing the footprint and
integrating new technologies.
Through change management,
we facilitated adoption by
users and stakeholders.
Corporate Relocation
When our client’s 715,000
square foot headquarters lease
was expiring, we formulated a
location strategy for Class “A”
office space, gathered key
requirements, built a site
evaluation model, a financial
model, and conducted an
alternatives analysis for the
business case justification.
Development
Large scale development takes
the right players providing
input at critical junctures
throughout the process. We
have provided planning,
negotiation and management
support; and acted in interim
executive capacities for
development districts and
zones in the U.S. and abroad.
Business Intelligence
Big data? How does 5,261
facilities with over two million
building systems and
components sound? Our team
analyzed reams of data;
estimating future risk of failure
against maintenance budgets
and making recommendations
that saved our client more than
$100 million over five years.
Construction
Experiencing growth and a shift
in strategy for global programs,
our client engaged us to help
plan and manage a capital
space expansion and new site
selection and construction
program with a total budget of
over $150 million and a five (5)
year implementation schedule.
Risk and Compliance
Untangling red tape can be
tricky. Our team developed a
comprehensive set of matrices
for laws, regulations and
policies; identifying critical gaps
in processes and procedures.
We mapped corrective actions
against functional departments
helping our client quickly
reduce critical liability.
Sustainability
Although most companies want
to be “green”, achieving this
goal can be elusive. We
leveraged a series of
simultaneous initiatives that
resulted in LEED certified
space, ESCO sourcing, and
training to promote awareness
and provide implementation
guidance for managers.
