Executive Summary

Organizations have invested in software to help them manage their real estate assets for years, often adopting technology in a piecemeal fashion based on their need du jour. This has created a challenging environment for enterprises to capitalize on and from which to advance their digital strategies, as they must integrate and amend a range of fragmented products. The future of facilities and real estate software promises to rein in this complexity, offering capabilities that take advantage of and add value to the vast amount of information contained within these systems. This report brings together the latest Verdantix research into customer trends, and insights from vendor interviews. The aim is to help corporate real estate (CRE), facilities and technology leaders plan for the next stages of their smart building journey.
