  • Date partnered: 2021
  • Number of occupants: 5,000
  • EverSmart Coverage: 500,000 ft2 in 3 buildings
  • Solutions installed: EverSmart Space, EverSmart Clean, & EverSmart Air

The situation: With nearly 14 million square feet to manage, this asset owner wanted anonymized insight in the space utilization of their tenants and buildings when making strategic decisions.

In a competitive and unpredictable real-estate market, our friends at Kilroy, are using data from Microshare’s EverSmart suite of smart building solutions to reduce costs, increase rentable value, all while improving comfort, service and safety in their buildings. Kilroy is being proactive in understanding space utilization. With the rapidly changing real estate market and the rise of a work-from-home culture, knowing your vulnerabilities before they become liabilities can save you thousands of dollars in lost revenue and potential savings.

“Microshare has been great to work with and has helped Kilroy on their IoT journey. We continue to work together to scale and leverage the data which has been useful to various departments within the company”

– Bayron Lopez, Portfolio Manager
