While this blog is largely dedicated to tips and thoughts to provoke the conversation around reducing the impact of the built environment, every once in a while, something so significant happens that we have to dedicate a post to that event.
As you likely already know, if you are in Multi-Family Real Estate, Conservice is the largest utility bill pay company in the United States. If you are in Commercial Real Estate, you also likely know that in December, Conservice acquired Capturis, one of the largest utility bill pay companies for Commercial Real Estate in the United States.
That means we have A LOT of data, with over 5 million utility bills processed every month across over 300,000 buildings and for my friends in multi-family over 5,000,000 units.
The ESG platform at Conservice builds on that platform providing a seamless solution from the time a utility bill is mailed for your property until you complete your report on the impact of those same utilities.
Announced last week during NAA’s Apartmentalize (press release link), the combined strength of that huge database and the intelligence of the ESG Platform of Goby now provide a one-stop for all of your ESG needs. From opportunity identification for operational expense and impact reduction to full GRESB reporting, the recent announcement of the acquisition of Goby, the ESG Platform by Conservice provides us capabilities that no other provider can match. This is truly a solution from bill to boardroom.
Applying AI and RPA into our comprehensive portal, we are able to transform millions of data points into the digital twin of your portfolio or fund to identify opportunities and track towards your ESG goals. The hybrid platform of both technology and strategic expertise provides an end-to-end solution for sustainable and responsible growth.
The new platform provides the most intelligent, comprehensive, and intuitive platform for ESG. Notice we are referring to E, S, and G, not just environmental performance. Our platform also includes social and governance tracking and benchmarking. The combined offering can be an important component in helping portfolios develop and implement ESG initiatives that provide an imperative to attract and retain capital, accelerate sustainable and responsible growth, and mitigate enterprise risk.
"The addition of Goby will enable Conservice to offer our clients a comprehensive ESG solution, from data capture, which is where we already excel, to analysis and disclosure," said Scott Hardy, CEO of Conservice. "Our new Sustainability Solutions offering will empower clients to create effective strategies and plans, measure outcomes, and report progress to stakeholders. I am thrilled to share this announcement with our current and prospective clients. The synergy of both solutions is a powerful combination the market has been waiting for."
