Facilitating Achievement of ESG & Net Zero Goals for Buildings & Campuses
Digital Transformation of your Properties
Keeping your building portfolio compliant with new regulations and reaching ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) goals in today’s ever-changing environment is not an easy task. It will not be sufficient to optimize the individual processes and management systems within a building. Digitalization, integration, and coordinated, centralized management will be key as holistic, sustainable decisions can only be made with full transparency.
From sustainability strategy to implementation, we support the digital transformation of your properties. Take the transformative path with us – from setting a goal to potential analysis to blueprint and piloting up to implementation and rollout.
Together, we will find the right way to begin your ESG project – regardless of your current status.
We support in reducing the risk of “stranded assets”
Tackle the challenge of early economic obsolescence of buildings that get devaluated and are non-performing.
We help define your decarbonization pathway to comply with regulatory energy efficiency standards. By focusing on your sustainability goals, also tenant expectations can be met leading to reduced vacancies and higher rents.
Being able to measure, report and improve data relating to energy, water and waste is a core success factor in this respect.

Circularity Program Setup
Circularity Program Setup
Difficulties in sourcing strategic materials, supply chain disruptions, increasing CO2 emissions, and new regulatory requirements are accelerating the adoption of the circular economy. However, the circularity ecosystem (e.g., regulations, standards, collaborative initiatives) can be overwhelming and a real challenge for industrial players. Siemens Advanta supports businesses in creating a common circularity view, identifying key impact categories, building integrated ecosystems along value chains, and navigating the road to circularity.
- Define a strategy to anchor circularity in companies' daily business, e.g., by designing more reusable/recyclable products
- Increase supply chain resilience, e.g., by securing access to strategic materials
- Gain transparency on upcoming regulations and prepare for them, e.g., the Circular Economy Action Plan of the EU
- Leverage ecosystems along the value chain and enable data sharing to truly close the material loop, e.g., via digital product passports
- Develop new business models by closing the loop, e.g., with as-a-service business models

NextWork
#NextWork
At Siemens Advanta, we address your future workforce challenges with our systematic workforce transformation approach, #NextWork®.
Digital transformation and structural change yield immense challenges for an organization's workforce. New competencies and skills need to be developed to adapt to digital processes and tools, revolutionizing traditional job roles. This creates a huge need for upskilling and reskilling measures in order to close the gap between the workforce of today and the workforce of the future. However, executives often lack transparency on future requirements and therefore cannot derive concrete implications for their organizations.
- Define the impact that digitalization and automation will have on the client's workforce
- Identify the jobs and skills needed for the client's business in the future
- Establish concrete development paths to transform the client's workforce systematically
- Upskilling and reskilling measures
- Transparency on future requirements
