What We DoManageSustainable Building Management & Operations

Sustainable Building Management & Operations

As sustainability continually reshapes the landscape of commercial real estate, Lincoln’s customized approach keeps our clients at the forefront of sustainable best practices that measurably impact their assets and by extension, the communities where we live and work.

Our accredited professionals harness the transformative power of auditable, actionable data to lower utility consumption and operating costs, map pathways to sustainability targets, increase engagement around sustainability, and grow value for institutional investors, private owners, and occupiers of real estate.

 

Our sustainability initiatives are built around a proprietary framework that prioritizes:

  1. People

From health and wellbeing initiatives to community engagement and education, Lincoln’s sustainability program puts people first.

  1. Places

Lincoln’s sustainable building management and operations standards focus on managing properties with resource efficiency and optimization in mind, creating value for clients, tenants, and the community.

  1. Performance

Recognizing that data is the cornerstone of success, Lincoln is focused on accurate reporting and exceeding our clients’ sustainability targets by partnering with global organizations to certify the sustainable management, operations, and maintenance of properties.

 

With this framework at its center, Lincoln’s customizable Sustainability Playbook caters to multiple asset classes, ensuring that we can design robust, truly client-centric programs. Because data is an essential element to achieve results, we establish portfolio baselines along with clear pathways leading toward sustainability targets, with a focus on energy optimization and carbon management.

Our commitment to sustainable practices extends beyond individual client projects. Lincoln partners with globally recognized organizations to align our standards and services with industry-leading best practices. Lincoln is a U.S. Green Building Council member, WELL Cornerstone member, ENERGY STAR Partner and Fitwel Champion.
