AESG STARTS SMART BUILDING SERVICES WITH ACCREDITATIONS IN THE UAE

ESG, the consultancy, engineering, and advisory firm, intends to help building owners create smart, connected buildings that support enhanced digital experiences for occupants. It also guides developers, building owners, and facilities managers in achieving the WiredScore and SmartScore certifications. “Work and living spaces have fundamentally changed in recent decades and high-quality, uninterrupted connectivity is now as vital to occupants as running water. Quality of digital connectivity places second only to location among the top criteria tenants look for when moving to a new office. Smart buildings are fundamentally shifting the real estate market, forcing building owners and landlords to re-evaluate functionalities ranging from user productivity and wellbeing to environmental impact,” said Saeed Al Abbar, CEO at AESG. AESG estimates the typical certification period for WiredScore and SmartScore to be between three to four weeks. Following certification, the firm, together with WiredScore, will help promote the building by defining a bespoke leasing and marketing strategy that includes information such as tenant engagement guides, building fact sheets, and building roadmaps that will help the client provide training to leasing teams, brokers, and project managers.
