Our ESG consulting services are divided into three areas. As your partner with a holistic
consulting approach, we accompany you in your project from the strategy, to the definition
of the processes to successful implementation.
Examine the current state and processes of the business to identify the right trouble spots.
Analyze collected data and information to identify root causes of problems and develop appropriate solutions.
Implementation of the developed solutions. This includes taking action, running projects and implementing change.
With our toolbox we have already designed and planned more than 70 projects with over 150,000 square meters of office space.
The platform-based analysis, planning and project management tool allows us to control interdisciplinary teams and guide them in a highly efficient manner.
By using a modular system, all planning steps can be traced, and decision-makers are involved. This leads to a maximum result while at the same time considering the needs that arise from hybrid work.
This creates added value for tenants and landlords. Floor plans are adapted to the requirements of hybrid work and space is saved. But landlords who want to implement a core & flex rental strategy also benefit, as tenants are increasingly asking for flexible space components and are on average willing to pay up to 20% more for them.

ESG consulting aims to improve returns in a sustainable manner, with a focus on ESG compliance.
Based on standardized processes, the short-, medium- and long-term goals are individually defined together with the customer.
The comparison of the current state with the desired result results in a project, which is divided into the categories of technical, legal and commercial project program settings.
The project is digitally processed so that all participants have insight into the tools, methods and processes used for planning, organization, implementation and monitoring.
The online tool allows task management, document collaboration, and project coordination, and helps the project manager coordinate team members in the field, as well as manage resources and schedules.
During the consultation, it may turn out, based on interim results, that goals shift and therefore the project program needs to be adjusted.
We promise to react flexibly to such changes and not lose sight of the big picture in order to achieve the project goal quickly and as cost-effectively as possible.
The objective of an ESG consultancy is to identify and formulate the goals and develop the necessary budget.
Through improvements in business processes, we achieve the optimization of workflows, increased efficiency and higher profit margins.
With ESG compliance at the forefront throughout the process, carbon footprint improvements are automatic.
Consulting can be extended to various areas of the business, such as product positioning and marketing.
In the future, the degree of value creation in the real estate industry will be determined by the extent to which a product is ESG-compliant. We at workcloud24 offer you the solution for this from a single source – practice-oriented and with more than 10 years of experience in the DACH region and CEE.
Environment (Climate, Resources & Nature)
Social (customers, suppliers & community) and
Governance (Corporate Governance, Management & Culture)
Based on these criteria, we help you define the fields of action and determine the necessary performance indicators so that the intended measures lead to the desired result and ultimately the increase in value and the sustainability contribution of your project become measurable.
What are challenges that ESG consultants can help with?
These are for example:
With the ESG software, the effects and results of all ESG measures to increase value creation and reduce CO2 emissions can be derived, measured and understood quickly and easily.
ESG Certificates of workcloud24 serve as proof of the quality of ESG standards. They enable comparison with national and international guidelines and reporting standards.
Our client, a global banking software company that previously operated exclusively in purpose-built leased office space, saved 40 percent of its total space by switching from a traditional lease to a service contract and incorporating accounting software.
Due to the cost savings for the core space, the company was able to pay 10 percent more rent, securing the best space within the building for itself.
This has led to an increase in attractiveness for the company’s employees and, at the same time, flexibility for the team, which can now book meeting rooms and private offices at additional locations through the use of booking software.
The CO2-emissions per employee improved by 45 percent because less space was required per employee and there was less travel time to and from work.

At one of our clients, a U.S. software and IT company with international operations, it had become apparent after the introduction of a hybrid working hours model that a rental space of 6,000 sqm was no longer needed.
To fulfill the lease, the company would have had to set aside payment obligations of €5 million until the end of the term.
By implementing an interim use, we were able to save 2 million euros. In addition, the CO2 balance sheet significantly, as the otherwise vacant space could be put to a connecting use.

At our client, an internationally active flex office operator, the procurement and management of energy was considered a facility management task. Tenant involvement occurred only to the extent that. than that they were informed of consumption and billing prices at the end of the billing period.
Through the comprehensive use of smart meters after the transfer points of the respective rental units, as well as ongoing comparative measurements and continuous communication and involvement of the tenants, it was possible to change their consumption behavior. In combination with utilization-based heating and cooling, energy savings of up to 50 percent could be achieved with comparatively low investments.

In one of the properties of a client, an internationally active real estate fund, of the total 35,000 sqm, about 50 percent of the office space had been vacant for years.
In addition to lower rental income, this led to a significant shortfall in ancillary costs.
After taking stock and analyzing the situation, we succeeded in achieving 40 percent occupancy of certain partial areas within just 3 months by making the leasing concept more flexible and integrating a flex office operator. This has significantly increased the attractiveness of the building and its acceptance by other prospective tenants.
