CRE Technology: Structure & Strategy

The Corporate Real Estate management function involves numerous stakeholders with competing priorities performing a wide range of tasks, usually across a wide geographic footprint. This inherent complexity has significant implications on which combination of people, process and technology will maximize organizational effectiveness and operational efficiency.

In this course, we will examine the role that CRE technologies play in the overall service delivery model, including both a review of traditional systems of record as well as the impact of emerging technologies and evolving work styles on technology infrastructure. Starting from a foundational overview of the most common CRE applications and a generic CRE service delivery model, the discussion will extend to include topics of mobility, business intelligence, performance management, data quality and sourcing strategies, as well as the potential impact that CRE information and technologies can have on the core business.
