Building Engines Announces Move to Boston Amid Strong Momentum; Company's Cloud-based Platform Now Serves 1.6 Billion Square Feet
BOSTON (PRWEB) May 08, 2018 -- Building Engines, the Commercial Real Estate industry's innovation leader for property management solutions, today announced a relocation to downtown Boston at 33 Arch St to continue to support their growing team and customer base.
To date, over 560 commercial real estate organizations representing 1.6 billion square feet across the country have evolved their property operations to Building Engines' cloud-based operating platform. This announcement indicates increasing momentum within the CRE technology industry, as well as within the company's home city of Boston. Across Greater Boston, Building Engines' technology manages over 1,600 properties representing more than 300M square feet of commercial space.
Existing local clients include Synergy, Taurus Investment Holdings, John Hancock Real Estate, RMR Group, Beacon Capital Partners, Harvard University Real Estate and others, who rely on Building Engines to take a data-driven approach to tenant service and property operations.
"We're seeing a massive shift in the commercial property operations market," said Building Engines CEO, Tim Curran. "Owners and operators of the country's most successful commercial properties are realizing the benefits of data-driven decision-making as they seek to provide a best-in-class tenant experience and increase asset value. Many buildings are now competing on customer experience and strict management of operating expenses, and those properties who can optimize every facet of their operations are winning more business, and improving their valuation."
Building Engines property management platform uses an integrated suite of proprietary mobile and cloud technology to help building teams access the data and insights they need to improve operational efficiency, mitigate operational risk, measure and improve tenant sentiment, and to make better-informed decisions.
