Building Owners/Facilities & Property Managers
Facilities managers, building owners and property managers in the commercial, retail and many other sectors are faced with rising building operating costs and are outsourcing these tasks to facilities or property management companies who become the "gatekeeper" for all facilities decisions. They can be an important partner in approaching an owner about a capital budget solution for their building. We manage data at the facility level and often know both the property management company and the owner information.
National Accounts
These property owners and managers are responsible for national field offices or retail spaces. Some are owned and some are franchised, but they all have common construction and facilities design, construction and maintenance. From McDonald's to Verizon Wireless stores to Lowe's, we fulfill the desire of the national accounts facilities professional for a sales team that understands how to coordinate centralized sales to disparate and often nationally dispersed locations.
Architects
This group of professionals drive the specifications for most of the commercial real estate in North America, both existing buildings as well as new construction. They specialize by vertical sectors and can be highly fragmented, yet they control many of the specification decisions in a facility. Extremely busy and hard to reach, architects require a sophisticated sales approach and a delicate balance between product detail and overall vision in your product education efforts.
Contractors
This group of tradespeople are highly fragmented and can influence the substitution of products through value engineering as they construct, rehabilitate or modernize a building. Contractors may employ their own engineers, designers and specifiers and can be an important partner in providing key solutions to building owners and managers. They may also make the final choice among various products "on spec" for a particular project. AllFacilities has introduced a new database of Energy Service Contractors (ESCos), professionals who often combine energy efficiency contracting and performance guarantees that their work will reach a certain level of energy savings during the term of the contract.
Engineers
This group of consulting engineers drive the specifications for most of the commercial real estate in North America, both in existing buildings and in new construction. They specialize by vertical sectors and may influence many specification decisions in a facility, especially on larger projects. We help reach this fragmented group of professionals with our database of contacts and experience speaking to them with an engineering mindset.
