KPMG’s 2022 Real Estate Innovations
For a 3rd year in a row, the Qobrix platform has been recognized as one of the top global innovations in KPMG’s 7th annual edition of the Real Estate Innovations Overview (REIO). The REIO report has been co-created through an international collaboration initiative, with twenty-one KPMG member firms performing research and incorporating 783 innovations from 45 countries/territories worldwide.
REIO global insights
Innovation in Real Estate and Construction is accelerating, mainly attributable to (digital) developments and sustainability targets, that are changing consumer (and societies’) demands. Rising inflation, interest, and cost of materials, coupled with the new ‘post’ COVID reality and pressure on ESG agendas also require the sector to strongly leverage innovation. As a result, innovators are connecting with traditional businesses to understand and mitigate these important business needs in global and local markets.
In this year’s REIO edition, KPMG aims to provide insights into the innovations that are shaping the Real Estate and Construction industry, now and in the future. In particular, it highlights the rise of innovative opportunities in commercial real estate, around key themes of Future of Work, ESG/Net zero and digital transformation (i.e. smart cities and buildings). It also discusses the use cases/ application of included innovations, to present the applicability of the innovation in day-to-day lives.
Renewed focus on broader scope of innovations worldwide
KPMG’s 2022 REIO publication features a broad scope of innovations, including companies from 45 Countries/Territories. A record number of incorporated innovations (783) has resulted in an international overview, including a larger presence of the European nations. 40 Fields of Expertise (FoE) have also been included, providing clarity on a company’s core competence. Further, the innovations’ position in the Real Estate Value Chain has been included as well, consisting of six key positions: Sourcing, Design & Planning, Construction, Property and Facility Management, Transaction and Leasing and Investing and Financing.
The main insights for this year’s publication include innovation as a kickstarter for achieving ESG ambitions and in parallel resolve regulatory issues by supervisory teams; and attention to sustainable innovations, such as new construction materials, energy efficient solutions and pre-fabricated components which support the development of environment friendly infrastructure. Also examined are flexible working innovations and indoor navigation due to hybrid working trend; innovations that focus on mobility and parking management solutions to ease out remote working for employees; and building management systems for property managers.
