Ashforth has taken essential steps towards enhancing its sustainability initiatives by upgrading its utility tracking platform. Having initiated utility tracking in 2015, the company transitioned to Measurabl in 2021 for a more comprehensive ESG management system. At the end of 2022, Ashforth upgraded this platform with another Measurabl tool, Asset Optimization, for real-time monitoring of electric usage.

    Measurabl, a cutting-edge ESG platform, automates the collection and analysis of utility, project, and climate risk data. This upgrade gives Ashforth a centralized hub for tracking, reporting, and improving its ESG performance. The platform’s automatic monthly uploads of utility data enable ongoing analysis, allowing for insightful comparisons across buildings, regions, and other customized groups.

    “With Measurabl, we can provide more accurate, granular data on demand and have real-time insights, allowing us to identify and address issues promptly. This not only saves us money, but it is also helping reduce our environmental impact,” said David Marks, Senior Vice President & Director of Operations for Albert B. Ashforth, Inc.

    Measurabl’s Asset Optimization tool allows real-time monitoring of electric usage and the identification of abnormal spikes. Through Asset Optimization, Ashforth’s properties gain the ability to enhance building performance, empower operations, improve ESG scores, and simplify reporting by leveraging data for benchmarking, collaboration, and performance management.

    “Over the past two years, Ashforth has realized the benefits of the platform which is a continuous evolution with frequent updates and new features, and our property managers are experiencing the efficiency gains and recognizing the value,” said Marks.

    Using Measurabl’s comprehensive platform underscores Ashforth’s commitment to responsible business practices and dedication to sustainability, aligning with the company’s ongoing efforts to reduce its carbon footprint and enhance operational efficiency.
