- Rewards buildings that use technology to run more efficiently and ensure equipment lasts longer (reduction in scope 1 and 2 emissions).
Social | How buildings impact wellbeing & wider society.

- Rewards buildings that use technology to create safe space with dynamic cleaning scheduling and building utilization.
Governance | The diversity, culture, and reputation at the property owner, occupier and management company level.
- Prevent internet monopoly and unfair terms in a market by rewarding buildings that offer multiple providers available in a building.
- Bring transparency to all users of the buildings, from investors to occupiers, through a third-party assessment.
- Rewards buildings that share data and reports on multiple building metrics, ensuring transparency and accuracy to all stakeholders.
Resilience | Protecting your properties from physical risk and protecting your business from transition risk (economic, regulatory, reputational and other systematic risks)
