Ecosystem Strategy for Networked Buildings: Building a Sustainability Advantage
A new megatrend crystallized in building technology markets in 2020. Although the coronavirus pandemic temporarily shifted companies’ focus to immediate priorities, it also reinforced many companies’ long-term sustainability focus. The building technologies market—including technology OEMs, energy service companies (ESCOs), and energy services providers—has been no exception and is reacting to new market trends.
As more current and prospective customers set GHG emissions goals as part of their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) targets, building tech vendors and service providers must evolve their solution offerings to better meet these needs of these customers. To effectively serve this market, vendors are expected to make their own sustainability commitments, weave sustainability into product strategy decisions, and realign marketing and sales to emerging customer priorities.
This report discusses how customer needs are evolving and how vendors serving C&I and MUSH clients must use sustainability to accelerate innovation. This report highlights emerging solutions and best practices in creating a sustainability advantage in building tech markets.
