Empowering Your Energy Decisions

At Benchmarking Buildings, we are committed to delivering energy solutions that are transparent, sustainable, and financially beneficial. Our team of experts works closely with you to understand your energy consumption profile and develop a procurement strategy that maximizes savings. We believe that every commercial property can achieve lower energy costs through a data‑driven approach. By partnering with us, you gain access to the industry expertise and market insights necessary to transform your energy procurement process.

How We Help You Benchmark Your Building

Our approach is centered on empowering property managers with actionable energy data. We transform raw utility data into a detailed profile that serves as the foundation for strategic energy procurement. This enables you to make informed decisions, ensuring that every dollar spent on energy contributes to a more efficient and sustainable operation.

Our Energy Procurement Process

Step 1: Data Collection and Account Profiling

Collecting Utility Data

We begin by gathering comprehensive energy consumption data directly from local utilities. With your authorization—facilitated by a Letter of Authorization (LOA)—we request detailed utility data that forms the basis for your energy profile. This accurate data collection is critical for identifying your current energy usage patterns and pinpointing areas for improvement.

Developing a Customized Energy Profile

The collected data is analyzed to develop a detailed profile for your account(s). This profile includes key performance metrics such as Energy Use Intensity (EUI), peak demand, and historical consumption trends. With a clear understanding of your energy needs, we can design a procurement strategy that targets the best opportunities for cost savings.

Step 2: Issuing RFPs to Energy Suppliers

Tailored Request for Proposal (RFP) Process

Using the insights gained from your energy profile, we craft a personalized Request for Proposal (RFP) that reflects your unique energy requirements. The RFP is designed to attract competitive bids from energy suppliers who can offer optimal rates and terms tailored to your property’s needs.

Managing the RFP Process

Our team manages the entire RFP process—from issuing the RFP to receiving bids. We ensure that the process is transparent, timely, and aligned with your operational goals. This streamlined approach reduces administrative burdens and accelerates the procurement cycle.

Step 3: Contract Review and Negotiation

Analyzing and Comparing Energy Contracts

After receiving proposals from energy suppliers, our experts perform a detailed review of the submitted contracts. We analyze each contract to assess rates, terms, and overall value, ensuring that every proposal is evaluated against your specific energy needs.

Negotiating Favorable Terms

We then negotiate with suppliers to secure the most advantageous rates and terms. Our expertise in energy markets allows us to lock in competitive prices, safeguarding your property against market volatility. This negotiation process is designed to achieve the best possible outcome, ensuring long‑term energy cost savings.

Why Energy Procurement Matters

Lowering Energy Costs and Enhancing ROI

Energy procurement is not just about securing a power supply—it’s a strategic investment in lowering your building’s operating expenses. By negotiating competitive energy rates and securing favorable contract terms, you can significantly reduce your monthly utility bills. These savings directly improve your ROI and free up capital for other critical investments.

Optimizing Operational Efficiency

A well-executed energy procurement strategy contributes to operational excellence by ensuring that energy costs are predictable and manageable. With a stable energy supply at a fixed rate, you can better plan and budget for future expenses, leading to smoother operations and enhanced asset management.

Driving Sustainability and Transparency

Our energy procurement services are aligned with our mission‑driven approach to sustainability. By reducing reliance on volatile energy markets and lowering overall consumption, you contribute to a greener, more sustainable future. Transparent procurement processes and clear performance metrics build trust with stakeholders and support your corporate sustainability goals.
