“…On a further gloomy note, Azlan et al found in 2009 that the majority of building industry people have lack of experience, and a low level of understanding on the green building rating system. This finding coincided with Fauzi et al's (2016) where evidence showed that not only were end users still unaware on the green building concept, even the key players in green building development also displayed poor knowledge on green building. Aliagha et al (2013) commented that Malaysia's green tax incentives are inherent but not significantly attractive, coupled with lack of public awareness, database and information technology, and professional knowledge.…”

The building industry is an important contributing element to the economy of the country. Evidence revealed that the building industry has contributed to the environmental impact in so many ways. Realizing this important role played by the building industry, most building projects have now adopted the concept of green building. In Malaysia, the green building concept has been gradually initiated into the building industry. Reference to the Green Building Index (GBI Malaysia) database shows an increasing number of buildings being certified day by day. Not only that, the green building concept indicated a positive escalation especially within the commercial and residential property sectors. In conjunction with the growing number of green buildings in Malaysia, several questions have arisen; one of which is whether this is just a passing trend or is it because of the benefits received from it. Therefore, this study is conducted mainly to investigate the reasoning behind the corporation's involvement in green building industry. This study used the qualitative method whereby, semi-structured interview has been chosen as the best data collection method. Seven participants from different sectors were selected to generalize the results. Results indicated that at the initial stage of involvement in green building concept, most of the corporations were in it for the trend and novelty of trailblazing the evolutions of the world building industry. It was only recently that green building concept is embedded by corporations due to the benefits they received which indirectly boosted their business operations. Nevertheless, the government, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and corporations still need to increase efforts to mould and embed the green culture for every Malaysian because the awareness level in the implementation of green building concept is still at an early stage.

“…CRESM is a management of sustainable/green CRE owned by non-real estate companies. CRESM is a practice of corporate real estate management that embeds sustainable triple-bottom-line principles of environmental, social and economic (Fauzi et al, 2016). CRESM is also known as sustainable corporate real estate management (Ziemba et al, 2015).…”

“…Because this topic is new, not many studies have been conducted in the past, particularly in Malaysia. In Finland, Masalskyte et al (2014) discovered twenty elements of CRESM, while Fauzi et al (2016) through a literature review, identified fourteen elements of CRESM that divided into three main elements of economic, environmental and social as similar to UNEP (2014). In a study conducted in the Netherlands, Sinke (2015) discovered eight components of CRESM.…”

Green corporate real estate (CRE) provides many benefits, especially to the environment. However, companies cannot fully benefit from a green building if the manager poorly manages the building. The CRE manager must consider numerous factors to ensure the building performs well and contributes a positive financial return to the company. Therefore, a study was conducted to investigate the key elements of corporate real estate sustainable management (CRESM) to facilitate CRE managers in efficiently managing and enhancing the existing management of their office buildings. Thus, the researcher conducted a semi-structured interview with thirteen experts in CRESM. Then, the data was analysed through thematic content analysis using Atlast.ti software. The findings highlight nine key elements of CRESM for office buildings.

“…Furthermore, literature reviews have been executed to identify which factors are important to make offices more sustainable [e.g. [7][8][9][10]. But what is not clear yet, is which expectations CRE managers have when they decide about implementing certain sustainable measures.…”

Climate change is pushing governments to implement sustainability regulations for the real estate sector. Together with the increased client demand to accommodate more sustainable buildings, corporate real estate (CRE) and facility managers are challenged to upgrade the offices that they use with more sustainable interventions. There are many different sustainability measures they could consider as potential interventions, which most likely would each deliver different types of benefits; both from the viewpoint of sustainability as regarding other important organizational outcomes that are influenced by them. This study first identified a list of potential sustainability-oriented interventions and potential benefits from a systematic literature review. Next, CRE/Facility managers were questioned on which interventions they are (considering) implementing and what short- or long-term benefits they are expecting to come out of them. This questioning was done through semi-structured interviews based on the laddering approach. Findings identified 33 potential measures, especially regarding services, skin, and the site. These were related to 18 different expected benefits. The economic, environmental, and social benefits were very diverse and there is no real consensus yet on their exact relationship with sustainable measures. The insights add to the gap in research on sustainability measures taken by CRE/Facility managers. In addition, they give other CRE/Facility managers in practice insight in current experiences and perceived benefits of interventions by their colleagues, to inspire and support their own decision making.
