Digital Real Estate Advisory

End-to-end concepts

Our client is an independent asset management company specialising in real estate and property-related investment activities. As a recent investment of our client, the development of a large well-known project for office space was commissioned.

As PwC, we highlight sustainability skills as a clear part of the competence profile in the context of past and current projects. The relevance and possibilities of digital neighbourhood services tailored to the property are initially highlighted. In addition, the question of the costs of comparable use cases and starting points for possible joint developments will be worked out.

The project goal consists of consistent user orientation from the planning phase onwards (individual offer for the property users) with regard to "digital amenities". Project developments should continue to meet and possibly exceed current and future expectations with regard to digitalisation and sustainability/ESG. In addition, the monetisation of smart building use cases should enable potential cash flow and certifications in the smart building sector serve as a potential additional value factor.

ConTech Project Management Office

In times of a global shift towards sustainability and digitalisation, our client in the Middle East is also questioning its conventional construction methods.

Our client is initiating a construction project in the Middle East where conventional construction methods cannot successfully deliver the vision. Innovation in construction methods and technologies (ConTech) is a critical factor in closing the capacity gap. The vision of the ConTech programme is to enable and catalyse a fundamental shift in the relationship between people and construction through the large-scale deployment of innovative technologies.

As PwC, we bring together the right players from global ecosystems to implement the ConTech programme. We procure the right conditions to build a long-term sustainable economy for our client and the project, leading to steady GDP growth. It also aims to drive change adoption and implementation, accelerating the pace and delivery of innovation and providing Agile Solutions with the tools for success.

The project objective is to elaborate a strategy and carry out prioritisation, analysis and stakeholder engagement. In addition, an ecosystem and economic attraction strategy, including investment criteria, will be elaborated and an operating model for innovation delivery will be created.

Implementation of world-leading ERP systems

Our client is the market leader in international food retailing with a global property portfolio.

As PwC, we were able to divide the completed project into three phases: Dealing with the conceptual set-up according to the requirements and standards as well as ensuring organisational and technical preparations. Furthermore, the setting up of the data model (SAP RE-FX, PS and PM) according to the respective end-to-end processes and the respective implementation. And finally, quality assurance for the respective testing and acceptance during implementation and the go-live start.

The project goal consisted of a cross-national software selection and support for the implementation of the leading ERP system in order to ensure the system-related mapping of owner-occupied and rented properties with regard to construction and real estate business requirements and processes.
