I had the opportunity to visit the EDGE building in Berlin and discuss various sustainability strategies in use. The EDGE building is a certified and sustainable facility in Berlin, Germany, that showcases the integration of smart technologies into facilities management.  From my sidenote:  -       Technology is revolutionizing the Real Estate and Construction industry. By integrating technology during building construction, facilities can be operated and maintained more efficiently and sustainably. More so, FMs should be involved early enough in the design phase. -       Facility managers should strive to learn and improve their skills to leverage technology such as IoT sensors, automation, and AI in the management and operation of building assets.  -       Data-driven facility management is the way forward, as a lot of data is collected on-site that can be used to achieve goals such as cost reduction, energy management, and user satisfaction. -       Many corporate organizations are now committed to sustainability, particularly in the sociocultural aspect. Employee satisfaction, comfort, well-being, and workplace safety are crucial considerations. This EDGE workplace facility prioritizes employees and building end-users to enhance productivity and achieve sustainability goals.  Thank you for taking the time to meet with me, Mr. Manuel Franck. Your willingness to discuss these important issues is greatly appreciated. #smartbuildings #facilitymanagement #SustainableFM

What is an example of successfully receiving WELL Platinum certification? I would like to start a series of posts highlighting projects that have been certified by WELL at different levels. Our first case is Three Garden Road, owned by Champion REIT, an office complex in Hong Kong's central business district. In 2020, it became the first existing building in Hong Kong to receive WELL Platinum certification. This recognition underscores the building's comprehensive strategy to create a healthy and favorable environment for its occupants. This project was awarded Excellent Class Certification of Indoor Air Quality for 15 consecutive years. Let’s have a look at couple examples of how they achieve clean indoor air. 🔹 Regular review of HVAC equipment redundancy for adequate cooling capacity to maintain indoor comfort level; 🔹 Installed IoT sensors, including indoor air quality sensor and occupancy sensor; 🔹 Installed Ultraviolet-C (UVC) Light sterilization equipment in air handling units to kill microbes and other harmful substances. This project is truly inspiring, isn’t it? Follow me for more exciting WELL certified projects! Picture credit: Three Garden Road website #WELL #greenbuilding #sustainability
