Executive Summary

These data tables accompany the Verdantix Global Corporate Survey 2020: Smart Building Technology Budgets, Priorities & Preferences which helps real estate and facility directors to benchmark their firm’s smart building technology strategies, investments and priorities for the next 12 months. It also helps providers of smart building technologies and facility services firms to align their business and product plans with market demand. This data set forms part of a series of annual surveys conducted by Verdantix with budget holders and decision-makers. Our latest study surveys executives on their budgets and priorities across the full breadth of smart building technology management, extending on previous surveys for energy management and facility optimization. The interviews for this study were conducted by telephone between July and September 2020.
