Everyone wants to save money, but at what (opportunity) cost? Property management groups are responsible for operating buildings on behalf of their owners, in a cost effective manner. And most professionals associate cost effectiveness with budget certainty.
The following questions are helpful in outlining an energy discussion.
1. What is your current procurement strategy? Find a fixed price and enroll?2. Do you establish benchmarks and review periods?3. How often do you procure energy (length of contracts)?4. At what level are the energy procurement decisions made—per location or as an
aggregated portfolio?5. Any notable issues or concerns with billing, additional fees, taxes?6. Are referral programs as revenue drivers an interest to your company?7. What would you change, if anything, about your current energy program or
procurement strategy?8. Have you looked at lighting and retro-fitting, new generation HVAC, and other
sustainable solutions to reduce operating costs?9. Have you ever participated in an energy audit or received grant money from the
County or utility?
