Commercial Real Estate IT Consultant
Proven CRE IT Consulting Experts with real-world track Records
Commercial Real Estate IT Experts
Commercial real estate is a critical component of our economy, and one which is experiencing innovation and disruption from technology. Our consultants have experience leading IT for many organizations in many sectors across the industry, as listed below.
Many consulting firms believe that what works well in another industry will work just as well in commercial real estate tech consulting, and try to assign consultants to CRE projects with no previous experience.
Our experts know where “general best practices” work well vs. where there are real nuances which must be taken into account by commercial real estate tech consultants, such as the fact that no two properties are fully alike in the way that consumer goods are alike, and that the pandemic and digital innovations have changed the demand model of office and retail space more than any other disruptor in recent memory.

CRE Leaders First - Then CRE Tech Consultants
Our Unique Approach to CRE IT Consulting
Like a lot of consulting practices, we help clients stabilize their IT platforms, secure their networks, and optimize their architecture, service levels and tech budget.
Unlike a lot of consulting firms, we build trust first and align our strategy to your overall strategy before taking these steps. The “right” approach to technology very much depends on your positioning, objectives, and culture. Is low-cost a competitive advantage or can tech capabilities pay off with a huge ROI in automation and efficiency?
Also unlike a lot of consulting firms, we help clients Innovate Beyond Efficiency by identifying ways to monetize tech and data to create new revenue streams and/or accelerate your existing business model’s top line.
This will look different in Commercial Real Estate tech consulting than in other verticals, and different in each of the sub-sectors listed above, but our CRE IT consultants often find ways to either increase sales frequency, shorten the sales cycle, or create a capability which wins market-share from competitors who can’t match it. Let’s work together to reveal what a Vista of Innovation can look like for your business.
